The New Husband by D.J. Palmer (2020)


 Nina Garrity finds herself in a position where her husband Glen disappears, presumably drowned while fishing on his boat. However, there is no body, nothing to indicate whether he is dead or alive. Nina would like to say she cares at this point but it’s hard because she has learned he has been lying to her. Nina, both broke and broken, must move on with her two children. Just when she is at her lowest point, a new man comes into her life.

Simon couldn’t be more perfect. He seems to know so much about Nina although they just recently met. A short time after meeting this perfect man Nina and the kids move into a new home with Simon. The problem is the youngest child is not adjusting well to the new situation. Not only is Simon a teacher at her school, daughter Maggie is also disappointed that her mother wants to believe the worst of her dad.

Maggie begins receiving messages on social media that she believes are from her dad as Simon becomes weirder. Finally, Nina starts to notice things aren’t adding up. Will she get the bigger picture before it is too late?
