The story is woven around a very few characters. But even then it is hard to guess a twist in the tale until you read it close to end. Devoured it in one go !

Little did he know that it will all come back to haunt him. He should have known better. For if Tamara could be the perfect wife, she could also be the perfect revenge seeker, conjured from stuff that nightmares are made of.And now Tamara has a plan, she knows something about Mike that no one else does. A secret that has the power to shatter him completely and take away everything that he holds dear.But when Tamara’s carefully plotted revenge scheme goes awry, all hell breaks loose. Maybe she isn’t as clever as she thought she is. Maybe, Mike has always been one step ahead of her.Is it too late now? Will Tamara figure out the way ahead? Or will she succumb to her destiny?The book manages to grab the reader’s attention right from the start. It starts with a bang and surely continues to enthrall the reader. Just like the title and the blurb suggests, there is a whole lot of drama revolving around marriage and adultery. But is the suspense nail-biting enough? No, I wouldn’t say that. Is it a decent one-time read? Yes, that would more likely be my response. Read it if you are looking for a time-pass read and not for a read that would blow away your mind.

Good suspense for most of the book but the end was very confusing and complicated making it a disappointing ending
