Amy 
mystery, women's fiction
The maid of honor is found floating in the water, dead, on the day of the wedding.
The Perfect Couple is a murder mystery that was surprisingly enjoyable. I don’t typically like murder
mysteries. Had I known this would be
one, I probably never would have started it.
And the only reason I did start this novel is because I needed an audio
book, this was available at the library, and Elin Hilderbrand had been
recommended to me a while ago. Browsing
some of her other novels, it appears that this was a rare venture into the
murder mystery genre for her.
Anyway, the story line grabbed me from the start and held my attention, unlike most murder mysteries. The
characters were realistic and relatable and the scenarios were
interesting. It got a little bogged down
with too many secondary characters in sections but it was clearly written and
engaging overall. Sadly, it got depressing
because most of the characters turned out to be faking their way through life,
lying, and unhappy. So, by the end, I wasn’t as thrilled with it.
I listened to the audio book narrated by Erin Bennett. I thought she did a fantastic job with different
voices and accents. She also did a fine job voice acting. She gets an A+!
