This is the story of the secrets within a marriage, told with real insight and compassion. The writing is vivid and tender, the plot so skilfully constructed, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough and the characters have stayed with me, long after reaching the end, The Love of my Life is an extraordinary novel. Rosie Walsh combines the emotional punch of the best of romance with the page-turning twists of the most masterful thrillers. I was torn between pausing to weep, and ploughing on to solve the mysteries, Nobody marries suspense and tenderness quite like Rosie Walsh. Formidably complex and fiendishly clever, The Love of My Life takes the emotional thriller to a whole new level. Both haunting and gripping, it’s a novel as full of twists as it is heart, a gorgeously smart exploration of memory, mystery, and the devotion we show to the people we love. A breathtaking novel from a superbly talented author, Walsh’s hugely compelling The Love of My Life instantly pulls you deep into the interior of a marriage. Part thriller, part mystery, part heart-wrenching love story, this is a treasure for book clubs everywhere, Brilliantly plotted and beautifully written, what really elevates Rosie Walsh’s book above the competition is the characters. Contradictory, flawed and entirely human, I loved and rooted for them like real people
