The Unheard by Nicci French

What goes on at her ex’s house? 

When their daughter comes back from visiting, Poppy is always tired, violent, wets the bed, is clingy, and says words Tess has never uttered.

When Tess confronts Jason, he blames her over protectiveness on Poppy’s mood change and says he sees nothing at his place that could have caused any change.

Regardless, Tess is suspicious and spies on Jason and his new family, does research, finds out he was having an affair the past two years they were together, and just doesn’t trust him.

Tess realizes she needs some help, but doesn’t know where to turn.

She turns to the police and tells her the story of how her daughter acts, about a picture her daughter drew of a woman falling off a tower, and connects the story to a person in the news who did fall off a tower and to a woman she didn't know that confronted her. 

The police had to investigate, and this gets everyone in Tess's life involved in the investigation even though it might be a wild goose chase.

The tension is subtle, but evident.  I mistrusted Jason and a few other characters, and really didn't know what to make of Tess.

Quite a few folks to suspect, but I kept bouncing back and forth between two characters.  

Tess became more obsessed as the book continued, the tension ramped up, and you won’t be able to put this book down.

ENJOY if you are a domestic thriller fan. 5/5

This book was given to me by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
