"Part domestic psychological drama, part cat-and-mouse page turner, The Golden Couple is one of those fiction books you might expect to devour in a weekend. The twisty tale of lies, lies, and more lies is perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Paula Hawkins." -RD.com

"The Golden Couple is a propulsive, twisty, unputdownable thriller - with two heroines you won't be able to get enough of... and a twist you'll never see coming. Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen have outdone themselves!" --Laura Dave, author of The Last Thing He Told Me

"The Golden Couple is propulsive and thrilling. It grabbed me from the first page and didn't let go. A page-turner that will keep you guessing until the very end." -- Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Malibu Rising and Daisy Jones & the Six

"The Golden Couple is a riveting cat-and-mouse game of a novel that explores the intricacies of marriage, and the many ways in which people lie to themselves...and others. This is a psychological thriller in every sense of the word." -- Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

"Superior prose and intricate plot lines... [a] riveting story, "The Golden Couple" will suck you in." --Zibby Owens
