“A marital saga so pitch-black it makes Gone Girl look like the romance of the decade . . . [The Woman Inside] resembles past smashes like Big Little Lies and The Woman in the Window.”—Entertainment WeeklyAn impossible-to-put-down domestic thriller about secrets and revenge, told from the perspectives of a husband and wife who are the most perfect, and the most dangerous, match for each other Paul and Rebecca are drowning as the passion that first ignited their love has morphed into duplicitous secrecy, threatening to end their marriage, freedom, and sanity. Rebecca, in the throes of opioid addiction, uncovers not only her husband’s affair but also his plan to build a new life with another woman. Spiraling desperately, she concocts a devious plot of her own--one that could destroy absolutely everything. The Woman Inside is a shockingly twisty story of deceit, an unforgettable portrait of a marriage imploding from within, and a cautionary tale about how love can morph into something far more sinister. It’s a novel about how people grow apart and how those closest to us can be harboring the most shocking of secrets.

"A fairly quick read. Kept me intrigued. But I will say, if you are someone who likes happy endings, this is definitely not the book for you. 3 out of 5 stars."

"My final read of 2018! The Woman Inside is an upcoming domestic suspense novel, and I had a lot of fun reading it! EG Scott is a pseudonym for two authors writing together, which can be awesome or a disaster. The Woman Inside turned out well! <br/><br/>I want to say up front that you have to suspend your disbelief for this book. Some aspects of the storyline are really over-the-top, but this book was still so damn entertaining. Just expect a soap opera level of craziness. I may have rolled my eyes a bit, but it hooked me back in.<br/><br/>The book is fill of unlikeable and untrustworthy characters, and I had so much fun watching everything unravel. This is also a unique book since it deals with the opioid crisis, and while The Woman Inside shows the darkness of addiction, there's also sympathy. I didn't love the characters, but I did feel for them. <br/><br/>If you need a new entertaining domestic suspense novel, don't miss out on The Woman Inside when it comes out next month. Thank you so much to Dutton Books for sending me a copy to review!"

"I like all the twists and turns but this also made me feel confused. At times there were many different plots going on that I wasn’t sure how they would connect. This may be one I need to go back and re read "
