Isabel Raine thought she had everything-a successful career, a supportive family, and a happy marriage to the man she loved. Then one ordinary morning, her husband, Marcus, picks up his briefcase, kisses her good-bye, and simply vanishes. That day, all her calls to him go straight to voice mail; the messages she leaves at his office go unreturned, too. Panicking after finally receiving a call from his cell phone in which all she can hear is a man's terrified cry, Isabel calls the police. But they aren't interested. Men leave, they tell her. They leave all the time. Desperate to find her husband, Isabel races to his office. But instead of finding him, she finds herself in the middle of an FBI raid. Hours later, she awakens in the hospital with a severe concussion and a homicide detective by her bedside waiting to question her about Marcus Raine-the real Marcus Raine. Now the only thing Isabel knows for sure is that her husband of five years is gone. Where is he and who is he are questions no one seems able to answer. But Isabel will not rest until she discovers the truth about the man she loves, even if it means risking everything-including her own life. Bestselling author Lisa Unger takes us on a nightmarish journey from bustling, glamorous New York City to the murky, twisted streets of Prague, seeking the answer to one bone-chilling question: What if the man you love, the one sleeping beside you, is a stranger?

I love Lisa Unger books. I discovered a shelf of them at the library and now I am determined to read all of them. This one was not my favorite. But that's not necessarily a criticism. I just didn't LOVE it as much as some of the others. It is still a great mystery that is a relaxing read when you need an escape. I got frustrated a few times with the decisions Isabel makes during her investigation for the truth. Overall a great read.

better than GONE GIRL
DIE FOR YOU was published in 2009, and at first it reminded me of the more recent GONE GIRL by Gillian Flynn. GONE GIRL is on many best-of lists for 2012, and it is a good book. But DIE FOR YOU is better.
GONE GIRL has a wife who has gone missing. DIE FOR YOU has a husband who has gone missing. Unlike the husband who has been left behind in GONE GIRL, the left-behind wife in DIE FOR YOU doesn't depend on the police investigation.
Unger does a fabulous job of presenting the various characters' views. She shows that no one person is all good or all bad. And the heroine, whose viewpoints are the only first-person chapters, may take unnecessary chances; but that's more satisfying and interesting than a do-nothing husband.
A good book can be five star or four. That depends on whether it is unputdownable. DIE FOR YOU is.
