Description
Imani Banks lives in a posh Brooklyn Heights neighborhood that has just been rocked to its core. An acclaimed movie director has been murdered, and his blond trophy wife—Imani’s closest friend—is missing. Their neighbors, along with the media, jump to the conclusion that Melissa Walker has killed her husband in a fit of rage and is on the run.
Fortunately for the missing actress, Imani is a psychiatrist as well as a steadfast friend. She will never give up her search and is determined to prove Melissa’s innocence. It shouldn’t take a degree in human behavior to know that Melissa would never leave her daughter behind.
Recently, Imani and her chef husband rented some extra rooms in their house to a struggling waitress from his restaurant. Tonya Sayre has moved in with her teen daughter and the convenient timing and her suspicious behavior soon lead Imani to suspect that the true killer is living right under her own roof. Now all she has to do is prove it.

I absolutely love this murder mystery. Everyone is a suspect and no one can be trusted. I immediately was drawn in and wondered what was going on the entire
book. The book stuck the ending as well.

The Darkness of Others is an outstanding addictive thriller with well-crafted plot. The story follows Imani who lives in a fancy Brooklyn Heights neighborhood. Recently, her best friend Melissa went missing after Melissa's husband, a famous movie director, was murdered. Melissa is the blond trophy wife actress and the number one suspect in the murder, but Imani knows Melissa wouldn't have left her daughter behind. Imani begins to suspect the very houseguests her husband allowed to stay in their home during these rough times of the pandemic. Can Imani prove it? This is one twisty mystery that will hook readers from the first page. Highly recommended!!
