Blurb:
What would cause a woman to brutally murder a man she loves?
January hits the big time when she marries millionaire Warren Vanderhorn. With looks, money, and charisma, he's the ideal GQ cover guy.
When he ends up murdered, all signs point to her as the perpetrator. As she uncovers some of Warren's long-hidden secrets, suspects start popping out of the woodwork, and her own history with violence starts making her question herself. People she thinks she knows—and trusts—turn out to be liars who keep things from her. Everyone around her suddenly has a reason to want Warren dead, but she's the only one who was there that night.
Now, she's questioning everything, even her own sanity, as her life unravels.
You will want to settle in for this ride - once it starts you will find you can't walk away
until the final curtains close.
And DAMMMMMNNNN what a curtain call.
I was originally introduced to Jo Michaels work with the short read 'Innocent'.
She left me wanting more back then but with Manipulation? She took mystery and suspense
to a whole new level.
Every page was a bit more twisted - A touch more convoluted - I had no idea where we were headed. Every time I thought I figured it out BAM a new event was thrown into the mix changing the whole flavor of events.
The storyline is crafted in a way that... I felt like I couldn't look away in fear that I would miss a clue, some subtle hint that would shed some light on the truth. And wait till the truth is revealed... So did not see that coming.
If you enjoy relaxing with a good suspense do NOT pass this one up

Jo Michaels loves writing novels that make readers gasp in horror, surprise, and disbelief. While her browser search history has probably landed her on a list somewhere, she still dives into every plot with gusto, hoping "the man" will realize she's a writer and not a psychopath about to go on a rampage. Her favorite pastimes are reading, watching Investigation Discovery, and helping other authors realize their true potential through mentoring. She's penned the award-winning Pen Pals and Serial Killers series and the best-selling educational book for children, Writing Prompts for Kids, which has rocketed the kids that use it into several awards of their own.
Most of Jo's books feature the places she's lived: Louisiana, Tennessee, and Georgia. That's given her a special amount of insight to what makes those locations tick. Her works are immersive and twisty, and she wouldn't want it any other way.
