Gaby Mortimer has the perfect life. She’s a talk show host
of a popular morning show, owns a beautiful home, has a maid and a nanny too, a
handsome husband, and a beautiful child.
And then one early predawn morning while out for her daily jog she
discovers the body of a young woman left in a wooded copse and everything goes
downhill from there. Fast. Gaby is eventually arrested for the crime, she loses
her job, is hounded by the media. At first you don’t really care. She’s not the
most likeable character with her self-deprecation, her middle class
snobbishness, the passive way she seems to go through life. But there are more
obvious suspects and when Gaby teams up with a journalist to investigate what
really happened you find yourself rooting for her.
Under Your Skin is
a fast paced, beautifully written thriller that has lots of twists and turns
and a heck of a surprise ending. Excellent read!
