Un père de famille est retrouvé mort dans une riche banlieue pavillonnaire, et au premier abord, sa vie semble parfaite. Mais lorsque Stella creuse plus loin, elle se rend compte que la victime menait une vie secrète — un secret qui pourrait être la clé pour retrouver le tueur.
SON AUTRE VIE est le cinquième tome d’une nouvelle série de suspense psychologique de la nouvelle auteure Ava Strong, qui débute avec SON AUTRE FEMME (tome 1).
En apparence, la victime cochait toutes les cases d’une vie réussie : employé au sein d’une société financière prestigieuse, membre d’un yacht-club sélect, une maison parfaite avec sa clôture blanche dans une banlieue pavillonnaire, une femme et deux enfants. Mais lorsque l’agent spécial du FBI Stella Fall fouille plus loin pour trouver des preuves, elle se rend compte très vite qu’il n’était pas tout à fait le chic type qu’il prétendait être. Que faisait-il lors de la soirée qui était consacrée à sa propre détente ? Lors du week-end où il avait l’habitude de s’absenter ? Et à son travail ?
Quelque chose ne tenait pas debout. Mais le temps presse, et c’est à Stella de reconstituer le puzzle.
Pourra-t-elle résoudre ce mystère étrange à temps pour arrêter l’assassin ?
Un thriller psychologique au rythme effréné, avec des personnages inoubliables et un suspense haletant, SON AUTRE VIE est le tome cinq d’une nouvelle série fascinante qui vous fera tourner les pages jusque tard dans la nuit.
Le tome six — SON AUTRE VÉRITÉ — est également disponible.

His life seemed perfect and he was seen as an important pillar of the community, but, really, was he? The more Stella and Carrie dig into his personal life, they find it was like he had two different personalities, one that was perfect and a second that was totally flawed. He was a ruthless womanizer who went to strip clubs, went on binge drinking with some of his friends, and used drugs, and it was within the latter environment that they would find the culprit responsible for the murder. But before they do so they'll work through many leads that uncover interesting material but are dead ends to solve the case. One good thing that comes out of this case, Carrie and Stella discover that they can work well as a team! As a member of the author's ARC team, I downloaded a free copy of this book and this is my honest opinion.
I really enjoyed this one. I liked the development in the relationship between Stella and Carrie. She finally opened up a bit. I’m still waiting to find out more about her dad but the ending did foreshadow some of that. The case was interesting, as was the attempt on Stella’s life. The past keeps coming up which makes an intriguing story.
I have read this series from book one, book five is by far my favorite so far. You really got to see Stella come into her own and become more confident. I highly recommend this author and series
Does not use the F word. I don’t remember hearing any curse words. Great book and looking forward to the next book in the series. Listened at 1.75 speed.
This legal thriller is a good read. It is captivating and suspenseful. FBI agent Falls uses her wit and investigative intelligence to solve a mysterious crime
