Synopsis

A man with a deadly past marries into the perfect, most respectable family in this riveting thriller from New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh. . . .

A woman buried.
A woman broken.
A woman crashed.
A woman burned.
And the man who knew them all.

Love at first sight, a whirlwind Vegas wedding, a fairy-tale romance.

For forty-three days, Tavish Advani has been the happiest man in the world—until his new life turns to ash, his wealthy in-laws’ house going up in a fiery explosion. His badly injured wife lies in a coma, her family all but annihilated.

Tavish thought he'd left the sins of his Los Angeles life behind, but it’s not so easy to leave behind an investigation into the deaths of several high-profile women—all of whom he'd professed to love. Tragedy and death follow him no matter where he goes . . . but this time, he knows he’s innocent.

Desperately trying to clear his name as the authorities zero in, Tavish begins his own investigation into the fire—and learns that his wife’s picture-perfect family may have been nothing but a meticulously constructed mirage. The truth is much darker than anything Tavish could’ve imagined. . . .

I went from not trusting our first-person narrator, to not trusting the cops, to not trusting his brother-in-law, to not trusting his wife. And then the big reveal happened and my jaw was on the floor. I've read and loved another of Nalini's thrillers, and liked a few from the GUILD HUNTER series. Ma......more

3.5 ⭐️ | This story hit the ground running, wasting no time dropping you into a family where it was obvious from the start that everyone had secrets. The premise of a supposed fire being used to cover up a m*rder was intriguing and kept me curious about what really happened behind closed doors. Tavis......more

4.5 stars rounded up. I don’t read a lot of mystery but I love Nalini Singh so I was willing to give this a try. I found this story to be twisty and well written. The entire story is in the POV of Tavish, whose last three girlfriends have all died mysteriously. He’s now married and living in New Zea......more

Goodreads review by Vijaya on January 27, 2026

I pre-ordered this book way back when. The day it arrived, I devoured the entire thing in a few hours... because Nalini Singh never disappoints. I couldn't help but get lost in the pages of this incredibly layered story. I love how she brought different aspects of the South Asian diaspora into this......more
