{"product_id":"9781448318124","title":"Her Prodigal Husband","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the award-winning author of the internationally-bestselling Brigid Quinn thrillers, which have been translated into twenty languages, comes this gripping series spin-off: an upmarket novel of domestic suspense about a pair of sisters nicknamed Malice and Lethal, and a husband who vanishes into thin air, only to reappear and throw a bomb into both their livesAlice Einstein - known as \"Malice\" to her former schoolfriends - likes to tell herself stories. There's a good one she's workshopping about how, despite once being a critically acclaimed literary novelist, she's ended up blocked and uninspired, living in her timid, conflict-averse sister Liesl's spare room.   But then Liesl sends her an SOS worthy of a thriller novel. The horror! The horror! Sam is back.   Sam, Liesl's wealthy ex-husband, vanished ten years ago, leaving her a chunk of money but no explanation. Sam is handsome, charming, manipulative . . . and now he claims he's sick. But Alice, with her experience of spinning tales, knows a liar when she sees one.   Haunted by a childhood tragedy that gave birth to the cruel nickname \"Lethal\", Liesl now specialises in saving things: dogs, children, sisters. Telling herself it's time she returned the favor, Alice engages the services of Brigid Quinn, a hardboiled local private investigator with a shady past, to help her get rid of Sam for good.   But as the plot thickens, Alice begins to wonder if she knows anyone involved - most of all herself - quite as well as she thinks . . .   Packed with quirky, colorful characters, and with a nail-biting, slowburn plot, Her Prodigal Husband is a nail-biting novel of domestic suspense that raises thought-provoking questions about self-deception, the power of stories, and what it means to be a family, and marks the long-awaited return of Brigid Quinn, \"one of the most memorable FBI agents since Clarice Starling\" (Publishers Weekly).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55732389708152,"sku":"9781448318124","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781448318124.jpg?v=1794284830","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781448318124","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
