About the book
A wronged woman must do the impossible - prove herself innocent of her ex-husband’s murder - in a shocking novel of suspense by Washington Post bestselling author Minka Kent.
Despite having every reason to hate her ex, Dove Damiani does not wish him dead.
Every day on her way home from work, Dove drives past her former house where her ex-husband resides with her ex-dog and ex-yoga instructor, beside her ex-neighbors and the ex-life she once considered 'frighteningly perfect.'
To outsiders, Dove appears bitter and resentful. The divorce left her alone with just a set of car keys and half of a meager savings account. Therefore, when her former husband's lifeless body is found in the birch grove outside Dove's apartment on what was supposed to be their fifth wedding anniversary, investigators quickly suspect Dove.
She insists she is innocent. She has never even harmed a spider in her thirty-four years. However, as evidence piles up against her, Dove starts to doubt her memory, her sanity, and even her own innocence.
Revised edition: Originally published as You Have to Believe Me by Sunday Tomassetti, this version of You Have to Believe Me has been edited and features a new ending.
