The Other Wife
The Other Wife | Michael Robotham
14 posts | 15 read | 14 to read
Childhood sweethearts William and Mary have been married for sixty years. William is a celebrated surgeon, Mary a devoted wife. Both have a strong sense of right and wrong. This is what their son, Joe O'Loughlin, has always believed. But when Joe is summoned to the hospital with news that his father has been brutally attacked, his world is turned upside down. Who is the strange woman crying at William's bedside, covered in his blood - a friend, a mistress, a fantasist or a killer? Against the advice of the police, Joe launches his own investigation. As he learns more, he discovers sides to his father he never knew - and is forcibly reminded that the truth comes at a price. A mesmerising psychological thriller from one of the greatest crime writers of today, Michael Robotham, the international bestselling author of THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS. Praise for Michael Robotham's writing: 'Will have you turning the pages compulsively' The Times 'Robotham doesn't just make me scared for his characters, he makes my heart ache for them' Linwood Barclay 'Superbly exciting ... a terrific read' Guardian 'A nerve-shredding thriller with the heart and soul so often missing from lesser crime and suspense novels. I couldn't stop reading, yet I didn't want Audie's story to end. Robotham is an absolute master' Stephen King on Life or Death

That‘s the end of this series. I loved revisiting Professor Joseph O‘Loughlin, Charlie, Emma and Vincent Ruiz. I highly recommend this series and Michael Robotham in general. #SeriesLove2023 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

I can see why people like this author. It was just ok for me. It‘s the first one I‘ve read in this series. His new series captures me more as it has a strong female character. I‘m trying to have a year of reading mainly Aussie authors.

MrsMalaprop Thanks for that Joy. As I was saying the other night I‘ve not read any of his. Is there a title from the strong female character books you‘d recommend? 5y
Jeg @MrsMalaprop he has only written one so far with the female character it‘s called Good Girl Bad Girl ( I think) . I enjoyed a lot more than this one. 5y
MrsMalaprop Thanks. Just found and stacked it. 🙏 5y

Nothing about this book grabbed me, I found it too long, a bit boring, when it wasn‘t a tad annoying.

This is the 9th book in the series, and even though they tell you they are stand alone books, I think this read suffered from not reading the others.

I think with its choppiness and characters, this book just kept me reading and reading! An easy read, yet still intriguing. 🥂

I'm a day late but oh well!

I'll read anything written by this man & have read all of the books in his 'Joseph O'Loughlin' series except for this one which I just found out came out earlier this month! 🤗

If you enjoy Psychological crime thrillers then I highly recommend you check out this series❣
