I thought “The Other Woman” by Sandie Jones was a great first novel. "The First Mistake" is even better. This is an intricately woven domestic suspense thriller which centers around the intertwined relationships of the three main characters; Alice,Beth, and Nathan. Alice and Beth have been best friends for two years, having met through their respective young daughters who attend the same elementary school.
Alice, who was tragically widowed some years ago seems happily remarried to Nathan. She has it all, a successful business, two children and a doting husband. However, cracks start appearing and red flags go up. Alice begins to have some doubts that readers can easily identify with.
Beth is a struggling single mother, and we soon learn the reasons for this. However, all is not what it seems. You simply don't know who to trust. There are lots of twists and turns, leading to a surprise ending. This book was a nail biter, and I couldn't put it down. I also liked that Sandie Jones put in a quick little nod to “The Other Woman” during the story.
