Description: "Childhood sweethearts Bryan and Laura have been seemingly happily married for over fifteen years. In fact, the deanes have the kind of marriage everybody else envies. So why is it that when Bryan Deane goes missing at sea on Easter Saturday, Laura Deane starts behaving more like a woman in love than a woman who&#x2019;s just lost her husband? Why won&#x2019;t Anna Faust, Laura&#x2019;s estranged childhood friend and Bryan&#x2019;s first love, accept the fact that she&#x2019;s never going to see him again? Why is the deane&#x2019;s only child, Martha, convinced she&#x2019;s seen her father outside the school gates looking very much alive? And why won&#x2019;t investigating officer, Inspector Laviolette, just close the case? Set on the north-east coast of England, The Missing Marriage is an epic story of first love and lost love, deceit and desire, and the extraordinary lengths people will go to in order to start over again."--Publisher description.
