The Fall by Gilly Macmillan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Nicola and Tom are childhood sweethearts whose lives are completely upended when they win the lottery. They build their dream home and start living their dream life, but then their dream life turns to a nightmare. Nicola returns home from a country show one day to find Tom dead in their swimming pool.
Intricately plotted with juicy twists and nerve-shredding tension, The Fall is a seductive and sinister story you won’t be able to put down. I truly didn’t know where it was going from one chapter to the next. The story is incredibly well written and asks what happens when your dream life turns into a nightmare, and who you can trust in the aftermath of the worst happening. Breathtaking and unputdownable.
