Synopsis:
Marriage is a prison for Kelly. Her controlling and manipulative husband Christos videos her in the house, has her followed and tracks her every move. She may be desperate to leave, but she's not stupid. If she runs, he'll make sure she never sees her children again. Christos has a mistress, Sylvie, keen to pander to his every whim and even keener to step into Kelly's shoes, should she ever vacate them. Kelly thinks it's stalemate for their twisted threesome, but one of Christos's container ships is about to dock in London with a secret cargo that will change all their lives forever. If Kelly is to escape, it will be in a way she never imagined, and people will" get hurt . . .
Kelly is like that desperate bird trying to get away from the odds of her marriage, but tell me which marriage doesnât have its odds. But if you would have stuck in a marriage with a controlling man, then you might also go at any ends to break-free from the marriage. Christos is a man who is perfect in every way and wants to keep his broken marriage like a showpiece on a mantle.
Well that was the underlying story in Until Death, and honestly the thrill in the book is not that rewarding or promising, nothing comes out of it- only a broken marriage and how a broken marriage can be saved.. thatâs all! The plot is one hell of a twisted and complicated ride. Even at times, I found myself so clueless as to where this author was taking me with her story. All the while, the author constantly hinted that there would be a murder on the very next page and I felt myself gripped to the plot out of anticipation, instead in the middle, I got lost and felt myself from stop reading the book for a while, since there is too much thrill that I couldnât handle, but there was no such thrilling event except, stalking.
The narrative style is what got me hooked into the story. The mood that she set in with her exquisite prose was brilliantly dark, scary and in one word, exciting. Every time Kelly opened her mouth, a thrill ran down my spine, although Georgie, the detective and the Wolfâs part of the story did not impact me that much.
