My review (from my advance reader copy from the publisher).
With more twists and turns than a pirouette, Laura Thomas sets the stage for a heart racing story that begins in beauty and builds to a crescendo you pray won't come. In her signature style, Laura layers secrets and sinister situations into one impossible-to-put-down novel. Romantic suspense rises to the next level as Leo and Harriet wrestle not only with the strange events taking their lives hostage but also the possible death of a marriage neither is ready to give up on. Or are they? Stock up on snacks and drinks before you sit down to read, because once you pick up this book, you'll be the next hostage--to the next page!
Ribbons of Guilt by Laura Thomas
A marriage in crisis. A betrayer in the
wings. A life at stake.
Harriet Duval has it all—a handsome French husband, a delightful
young daughter, a successful career as a professional ballerina
behind her, and a beautiful future in a charming village in the
English countryside. Even her beloved sisters can’t see the painful
truth she hides beneath her perfect mask…
Successful businessman Leo Duval is at a breaking point physically,
emotionally, and spiritually as he is forced to harbor secrets in
Paris while his marriage in England dissolves before his very
eyes.
The magnetic pull of Harriet’s old dancing life and the shocking
murder of a Swan Lake ballerina causes her to question everything:
faith, future, family. When the killer begins targeting the Duval
family, Leo and Harriet’s vulnerable marriage is tested by an
unimaginable traumatic event. Will the guilt they carry divide them
when they need each other most?
