Summary

Louise Barnsley is a single mother who works in an unfulfilling role as a secretary. On a particular night, she engages in a conversation with David Martin, a man she met at a bar. When it is time for the two to depart, David gives Louise an unexpected kiss. Later, she realizes David is the new boss at her workplace. When Louise realizes the truth that David is married, he confesses to her that it was a mistake, though in spite of feeling guilty, he maintains his feelings for Louise. She is conflicted about the situation, which is only further complicated by her encounter with David's wife Adele, who, as a new resident in town, is interested in forming a friendly connection with Louise. Soon after, Louise is caught in the middle of a twisted circumstance that makes her question the sinister conspiracy behind their marital relationship.

Reception

Alison Flood from The Guardian gave praise to the novel, stating that "Behind Her Eyes is a canny move from Pinborough" and that when the twists are "revealed, it is fantastically creepy, if not entirely unexpected." Nilan Singh of The Free Press Journal labeled Behind Her Eyes as a "compelling read as much for its well-woven plot and story; as for the complete control in its unravelling."
