The End of Her will keep you guessing right up to the end . . . once you pick it up, you will not want to put it down.” —USA Today

"[Shari Lapena is] the queen of the one-sit read" Linwood Barclay

A long-ago accidentand a visitor from out of the blue. . .

Stephanie and Patrick are adjusting to life with their colicky twin girls. The babies are a handful, but even as Stephanie struggles with the disorientation of sleep deprivation, there's one thing she's sure of: she has all she ever wanted.

Then Erica, a woman from Patrick's past, appears and makes a disturbing accusation. Patrick had always said his first wife's death was an accident, but now Erica claims it was murder.

Patrick insists he's innocent, that this is nothing but a blackmail attempt. Still, Erica knows things about Patrick--things that make Stephanie begin to question her husband. Stephanie isn't sure what, or who, to believe. As Stephanie's trust in Patrick begins to falter, Patrick stands to lose everything. Is Patrick telling the truth--is Erica the persuasive liar Patrick says she is? Or has Stephanie made a terrible mistake?

How will it end?

    Lots of character development and twists. It was a great book. My only complaint is the ending was a bit abrupt.
  • What a page turner!

    This may be my favorite Lapena book yet. It has you guessing about who is telling the truth, and when you know, it has you hoping the guilty will get their due. I am happy to say it has a happy ending. Am I a terrible person for hoping so? Probably!
  • Not worth the time

    So repetitive, this book could have been thirty pages and told the same story. Would not recommend.

    So overdone and predictable. The plot was like a stale joke. 2 stars for the first 10 chapters then it got so repetitive and forced.
  • Mind Racing

    I would have rated this a 5, but the lack of credibility in a couple of the legal scenes bothered me. Spoiler!!!!! No attorney would ask a witness a three part question like Lange asked Erica on the stand. Also, the polygraph examiner would not let other people in the room. Other than that, I liked the twists and turns of the book and the unsettling ending.
  • Speed read

    Shari Lapena strikes again! She is a master of weaving and intertwining characters, flowing effortlessly in past and present… The evil Erika, poor unlucky Patrick and the unsuspecting Stephanie are all in quite a predicament… you won’t be able to put this one down.
