The other

The Other , EG Scott's debut novel, is a gripping domestic thriller where nothing is as it seems. In this suspenseful tale of lies, betrayal, and revenge, a couple will face the unexpected consequences of the most damaging thing in a marriage—infidelity.

Rebecca didn't know what it meant to be loved until she met Paul, a successful, charismatic, and... married man with a past as dark as hers. The pain and trauma they had both faced created an irresistible bond between them. They knew they were the ideal match—and perhaps the only one.

However, twenty years later, unshared secrets and frustrations take their toll, consuming the relationship. Paul becomes involved with another woman, and the extramarital affair that was once an outlet quickly becomes a nightmare. The jilted lover becomes obsessed with the couple and begins stalking them, until something terrible happens.

Fragile and confused, Rebecca turns to opioid addiction as signs of Paul's infidelity become increasingly evident. The situation worsens when she becomes unemployed and a woman from her husband's past mysteriously disappears. But none of this stops her from hatching a devious plan that could destroy everything and everyone around her.

The other is a story of betrayal and lies, a portrait of a marriage on the brink of collapse, which shows us that love is capable of turning into something very sinister.
