丈夫之谋

Hospital physician June Lowe and successful author Rick Lowe are a seemingly perfect couple, but their relationship faces a significant challenge: children. Rick, driven by his desire for family, insists that June give up her medical career to start building a life with their future offspring. While June is not opposed to the idea of having children, she firmly believes in her own professional path and dreams of expanding into writing herself. She finds it perplexing why Rick cannot be the primary caregiver while working from home. This disagreement has created a rift between them, with June feeling that Rick dismisses her aspirations and feelings about their future together. Tensions rise as Rick receives an anonymous blackmail letter involving something he adamantly denies, which immediately implicates June in a double homicide. Despite her innocence, June is drawn into a web of deceit when she realizes Rick's true intentions—to frame her for the crime. With no one to turn to for support, not even her usually supportive sister Maggie Porter who believes the accusations against June, she must navigate this treacherous situation alone. June urgently seeks to uncover the truth about why Rick committed such a heinous act and why he is pinning it on her. Her search leads her down a dangerous path where she must outmaneuver both Rick and the authorities. As June delves deeper into the mystery, she enters a perilous cat-and-mouse game with Rick. The line between predator and prey blurs as she strives to unmask his true motives. This thrilling narrative of betrayal and deception keeps readers on the edge of their seats, questioning who is truly the cat and who is the mouse in this complex tale.
