The View From Here - A Thriller

Rachel Howzell Hall

A paranoid widow fears her late husband isn't gone at all in a gripping psychological thriller by the New York Times bestselling author of Anthony Award-nominated These Toxic Things.

After eleven years, Nicole Baxter and her husband Truman's marriage is beginning to fracture. Suddenly, during a scuba diving accident near Catalina Island, Truman is gone. No body. No signs of foul play. Presumed dead.

Clinging to the hope that Truman might still be alive, Nicole is devastated, in denial, and struggling with insomnia, as well as guilt over the secrets she kept from the man she loved--a pregnancy, a miscarriage, and an incautious fling with an attentive neighbor. Then come the strange occurrences putting Nicole further on edge. The scent of Truman's cologne. The wet footprints in the house. The cryptic texts from his phone. And the message written on her bathroom mirror: I'll luv u 4ever.

Nicole has never felt so alone, isolated, and paranoid. If she's losing her mind, then why does it seem so real? If it's real, how is that possible? As Nicole's grip on reality slips away, the answers are becoming a matter of life and death.
