To cope with an anonymous, random killer like brain cancer is hard enough. To suspect that the real killer is someone she once loved, makes everything that much more devastating. With the end so near, will there be time to discover the truth?
Catherine McKenzie's upcoming release, Six Weeks To Live, is stunning suspense that explores how family secrets, deception, and revenge is a cancer far more potent than glioblastoma.
Jennifer's family members doubt her sanity. Surely, the brain cancer is warping her mind. One would have to be losing it to believe her husband, the father of her children, could do something as diabolical as poisoning her. It's crazy. Or is it?
There is plenty of motive. Jennifer's estranged husband has been relentlessly hammering her for a divorce, which she refuses to give him. He and his new girlfriend are harboring a secret, which is more than reason enough to want to knock off the wife standing in the way of their happily ever after.
Dare we hope Jennifer's grown girls, a complex set of triplets, might come on board to help her track down an explanation for mysterious lab results predating her terminal diagnosis? Isn't it the least a mother can expect when things turn dire? If only family dynamics and relationships were that easy.
Time is very quickly running out. Who, or what, will win in the end? Can there even be a win in this situation?
Six Weeks To Live is the best novel I have read all year. You will want to pre-order your copy now. It releases on May 4, 2021. I received a digital galley from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. My sincere thanks to the publisher, Atria Books, and the author, Catherine McKenzie, for this deeply satisfying reading experience.

ReplyDeleteYes! So engaging and well-written. Had me guessing right up to the brilliant ending. This one is exceptional.
DeleteWow! This sounds like a great book! I can well imagine how a family would react to someone with a diagnosed brain tumor would question the accuracy of the victims suspicions. How very sad for the poor woman. Of course, I hope she lives and prevails against her enemy, so now I want to read the book to see what happens.
ReplyDeleteYes... knowing what happens to a patient with glioblastoma would be enough to cause others to question the accuracy of her thinking, reasoning capacity, and grasp on reality. None of us like to be doubted or thought to be imagining things. This is a great book that I will encourage everyone to read.
