The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth is a compelling mystery thriller centred around two married couples, Pippa & Gabe and Amanda & Max, and their unconventional love stories.
This is one of those stories where everyone is behaving badly and all the main characters have something to hide. So be prepared for unlikeable characters.
There is lots of back and forth with the then and now timelines which did cause some disconnection with the story for me.
The omniscient point of view of a character after they had died was a novel idea and I loved it!
The Soulmate is an entertaining read filled with twists and turns. A story about love, family, betrayal, secrets and forgiveness. Sally Hepworth raises the question; What lengths would you go to for your soulmate?
