The Hollow Anniversary

By G.M. Binga-an

She promised him forever. She's about to make good on that promise.

Claire Evans is the wife every man dream of. She's a devoted partner, a gifted gardener, and the picture of gentle grace. But as her tenth wedding anniversary approaches, Claire is haunted by a single, inescapable truth: her perfect marriage is a hollow shell.

The discovery of her husband's affair doesn't break her; it completes her. It gives the emptiness inside her a name and a purpose. While Ethan sees a forgiving wife, Claire is meticulously archiving his sins in a secret shoebox. She is studying his lover, Isabel, learning her habits, her fears, her very scent. She is even befriending Isabel's best friend, weaving a web of lies to isolate her prey.

And in her pristine garden, she is cultivating her masterpiece: a rare, lethal poison, destined for a very special anniversary cake.

But every perfect plan has a loose thread. For Claire, it's Chloe who begins to see the monstrous truth hidden behind the sweet smiles and the locked garden shed. As the anniversary night descends, Chloe finds herself in a race against a clock that is ticking down to a meticulously planned murder, where the only thing more terrifying than the killer's plan is the serene peace she feels while executing it.

Hollow Anniversary is a chilling, unforgettable thriller about the poison of betrayal and the deadly harvest of a broken heart. A must-read for fans of Alice Feeney and Lisa Jewell.
