Uncovering her husband’s family secrets could cost her everything…

Ally’s perfect marriage to Tim Hawthorne is crumbling under the weight of one trial after another. Forced to visit Tim’s mother on her secluded island off the coast of Maine, Ally uncovers a sinister secret: years ago, a member of the family was the prime suspect in a young woman’s disappearance from the same island. Now, history is repeating itself. Another woman has vanished without a trace. Ally digs into all the dark secrets of the Hawthorne family’s past, but what she discovers may cost her more than her marriage — it may cost her life.

I've read well over 1000 books, and I love everything I've read from this author...and I've read everything he's written in the adult demographic. Great characters, great plots, and great clean dialog. Now I just have to wait for more. I'm waiting to hear what's next for Jack Stratton, Mr. Greyson...:)

I was hooked almost immediately and suddenly it became a page turner. I did not see the ending until the last few pages.

The Woman Beneath The Stairs is the best psychological suspense I’ve read in a long time. Brilliantly written, it grabs you and won’t let go.

Tim and Ally embark on a trip to Maine to see his ill mother and twin brother Tom. When they arrive at the home on a private island things aren’t as expected. When the police arrive looking for a missing woman and try to implicate her husband she isn’t sure what to believe. Soon bodies are stacking up, their boat is sabotaged, and they have no communication with the outside world.

Ally is already struggling with depression and taking medication. When she starts to hear a woman’s voice she wonders if what’s she’s experiencing is real or a figment of her imagination. She needs to find out the truth.

Each person in the book has quirks, attitudes, or physical characteristics that set them apart from the rest making it interesting while strengthening the mystery as to who is actually committing murder on the island, and why.

I love a book that keeps me guessing right to the end and this one hit the mark. It was perfectly paced, with each clue hidden within diversions that sent me on a few side paths leading in different directions. Add in plenty of heart pounding action and I couldn’t put it down. 

I highly recommend this book.

I've read most of this author's books but this was boring to me, lots of shocking things, but felt unrealistic.

The only criticism I have is that there are so many names involved. If I left the book for a couple of days I would have to leaf back to figure who was who going forward.

I read the book intermittently because it was convoluted and a bit long-winded. The ending was unsatisfactory and a bit of an overkill as far as I'm concerned. Some may love this book I just didn't....
