Publisher Description
Two women. One dead husband. And only one alibi.
Everyone at Chantilly’s Bar noticed out-of-towner Camille Bayliss. Red lips, designer heels, sipping a Negroni. But that woman wasn’t Camille Bayliss. It was Aubrey Price.
Camille Bayliss appears to have the picture-perfect life; she’s married to hotshot lawyer Ben and is the daughter of a wealthy Louisiana family. Only nothing is as it seems: Camille believes Ben has been hiding dirty secrets for years, but she can’t find proof because he tracks her every move.
Aubrey Price has been haunted by the terrible night that changed her life a decade ago, and she’s convinced Benjamin Bayliss knows something about it. Living in a house full of criminals, Aubrey understands there’s more than one way to get to the truth—and she may have found the best way in.
Aubrey and Camille hatch a plan. It sounds simple: For twelve hours, Aubrey will take Camille’s place. Camille will spy on Ben, and the two women will get the answers they desperately seek.
Except the next morning, Ben is found murdered. Both women need an airtight alibi, but only one of them has it. And one false step is all it takes for everything to come undone.
Anatomy of an Alibi Review
Review: Anatomy of an Alibi — A Twisty Mystery Told From Multiple Perspectives
Anatomy of an Alibi is an engaging mystery thriller that keeps readers guessing from the very first pages. What immediately stood out to me was the way the story unfolds through multiple perspectives, allowing the reader to see the investigation—and the secrets surrounding it—from different angles. That narrative choice adds depth to the plot and keeps the tension high as each new revelation raises fresh questions.
The novel delivers exactly what fans of suspense and psychological thrillers are looking for: plenty of twists and turns, shifting suspicions, and a steady sense that nothing is quite what it seems. Just when you think you’ve figured things out, the story pivots in another direction. That constant sense of uncertainty makes it hard to put the book down.
One of the book’s biggest strengths is its cast of characters. Camille, in particular, is a compelling protagonist—smart, determined, and layered in ways that make her feel real. The supporting characters are equally well drawn, each bringing their own motives, secrets, and personalities into the mix. As the story progresses, those relationships become just as important as the mystery itself.
Overall, Anatomy of an Alibi is a fast-paced and entertaining read that will appeal to fans of mystery, crime fiction, and twist-filled thrillers. The multiple viewpoints, strong character development, and unpredictable plot combine to create a story that keeps you hooked until the final pages.
If you enjoy suspense novels packed with surprises and shifting perspectives, this one is definitely worth adding to your reading list.
