A domestic life thriller about an attractive young couple and their lives behind closed doors - a tale of abuse, keeping up appearances, and secrets . . .
Andi seems to be on top of the world - with a charming husband and a beautiful home. But one night on their way home after a charity event, Chad lashes out at his wife - and, for the first time, she strikes back. Chad’s body is dashed on the rocks below, while Andi is left in the driving rain, staring down into the inky darkness of the Atlantic Ocean. The community pulls together to support the grieving widow, unaware that the local sheriff has his own suspicions about what happened.
In her new role as widow, Andi struggles to regain her footing under the scrutiny of a determined detective, even as she questions herself what happened that fateful night. The stranglehold of Chad’s abuse continues to drag her down while she attempts to start a new life. After so many years of physical and emotional abuse, she’s broken - terrified of being alone, desperate for the safety of a relationship . . . no matter how self-destructive it might be. She discovers her husband led a secret life, one that threatens to destroy her even after his death.
As Andi unravels the threads of Chad’s deception, she finds herself caught up in the web he designed to ensnare her - fighting for her life.
Fatal Impulse is the first in an intriguing new mystery series, where each widow faces challenges that threaten to destroy her just as she begins to find her strength.
