The Soulmate
by Sally Hepworth
mysterious
fast-paced
One’s first reaction after finishing a ‘thriller’ should not be, “that’s it?”
I’d classify this one closer to a domestic drama or mystery and think that marketing it as a thriller does it a disservice.
After hating The Younger Wife, I didn’t have much hope for this one and turns out I was right. Can Hepworth write a mystery or thriller that does not involve a mental illness or medical diagnosis?
The characters were flat with zero development. The plot twists didn’t add much, including the last few that just induced eye rolls.
This premise had promise: house on a cliff where a couple talks to people when they stand on the edge when the husband isn’t able to save one.
The premise was the best part of this.
