Waiting For Wednesday by Nicci French 372 pages

Waiting for Wednesday is the third book in the Frieda Klein series by husband and wife writing team Nicci Gerard and Sean French. Frieda is a psychotherapist who sometimes works with the police to solve crimes. In this installment Ruth Lennox, wife and mother of three is found murdered in her own home. The ensuing investigation reveals that Ruth was leading a secret life, the unveiling of which, throws her emotionally wounded children into Frieda’s life and home. Simultaneously, a chance remark sends Frieda on a separate investigation where she meets up with a retired journalist working on a series of missing girl reports.

I read the previous two books in one sitting but this one took a moment to get into. Way too much going on, and Frieda seemed to be losing her mind, although to be fair she was nearly killed in Tuesday’s Gone by a psycho first introduced in Blue Monday—you really need to read these in order—but eventually I got to the can’t-put-it-down stage. I can’t wait until Thursday to find out what happens next.
