Description from Goodreads:
"We promised to keep each other’s secrets. Until they found the body…
The Wife:
My husband and I are fighting for our lives in hospital after a terrible car accident. But despite my pain, all I can think about is what our families will find behind our front door. The scarf that has been all over the news, belonging to a dead young woman with honey-coloured hair. I have to speak to the police before my husband can…
The Husband:
I’m drifting in and out of consciousness, but when I hear my wife talking to the police, accusing me of the murder of an innocent woman, a cold fear grips me. I know I’ve got a temper. That I’ve not always been faithful. Will they think I killed her?
I think of my wife’s jealous streak, of the lies she’s told our loved ones. But if I tell the whole truth, they’ll look into her past. And that will destroy me, too…
Two people fighting for their lives. Two people with secrets to hide. Who will you believe?"

I have read a number of K.L. Slater's previous books so couldn't wait to dive into this and I wasn't disappointed.
The story revolves around the tumultuous marriage of Parker and Luna, who seem to have it all but are hiding dark secrets. When an unexpected event shakes their lives, they find themselves trapped in a web of deception and betrayal.
It was engaging, easy to follow and compelling. The pacing was good, the mystery was intriguing with some excellent but unexpected twists and turns and with a cast of interesting characters, not all of them being particularly likeable.
'Husband and Wife' delves into themes of trust, betrayal and the consequences of hiding the truth. It forces you to question the nature of relationships and the lengths to which people are willing to go to protect their secrets.
This is a riveting psychological thriller that doesn't disappoint and if you are a fan of this genre, I recommend giving this book a read.
Thank you to the author, Bookouture and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of this compelling book.
