The Teacher

A mind-bending, psychological thriller from Freida McFadden, the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Housemaid!

Lesson #1: trust no one

Eve has a good life. She gets up each day, gets a kiss from her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except…

Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye.

Addie can't be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that's what everyone says. 

But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet.

The narrative swings back and forth between two central protagonists (three if you count the second and third parts of the book late on). Eve is a woman who seemingly has it all. She’s got a gorgeous husband, a well-respected job as a Math teacher and she gets to buy all the shoes she can possibly want. The only trouble is, she’s not happy with her husband, Nate. And she wants a way out.

EVERY time I think I have the storyline figured out, Freida throws something else in there. I couldn’t put this book down. Definitely a page turner. That damn Nate. Whew.
