Synopsis

From the author of All About Evie, “a literary wonder of family, crime, and romance … Fans of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train will love this book” (BookTrib).

When Natalie Shelton thinks back to how things were before the car accident, she remembers a great marriage. She and her husband, Zack, seem as strong and dependable together as the houses he builds. They live in Portland, Oregon, and Natalie is co-owner of a successful accounting firm. They’re happy, she’s almost sure of it.

Yet as Natalie lies trapped in a coma, unable to communicate though aware of everything around her, she realizes that her husband is hiding something. Zack has always been reticent about his past, which she attributed to an unhappy childhood. Now the strange calls he’s receiving, the apologies when he thinks she can’t hear him, and her fragmented memories from the morning of the accident suggest a deeper secret.

When she finally awakens, Natalie is determined to find out the truth. Sorting through clues as her brain heals, she realizes she has a rare opportunity—to reexamine the life she’s made and the man she’s made it with. But as answers come to light, she faces surprising, heartrending decisions, as well as a danger that could upend her world once again, as Zack’s past finally catches up with them …

“Fast, suspenseful … an action-filled, unexpected resolution.”—Library Journal

This was my first CL book and I’m sitting here in disbelief that I haven’t read her before now, especially since she has written several books.

With the signature heart of a Cathy Lamb novel interspersed with adorable humor, loving friendships and quirky family stories, The Man She Married delivers in every way.
