Maggie Wallis, a determined woman from an era where vows were sacred and divorce was a scarlet letter, resolves to give her tumultuous marriage one final chance. However, when her eight-year-old daughter, Piper, refuses to board the school bus, Maggie is thrust into a heart-wrenching dilemma where she must choose between saving her marriage and saving her daughter.

As she sets herself upon a path of liberation, the discovery of two missing women threatens to derail all of Maggie's efforts. The police are desperate for any leads, and Maggie finds herself entangled in a web of lies and deceit that threatens to consume her.

Could these disappearances hit closer to home than she realizes?

As the pieces of the puzzle fall into place, Maggie must summon the courage to face the truth, whatever the cost.

Fatal Flaw is a riveting psychological thriller that explores the lengths one woman will go to protect her child, even if it means confronting the darkest corners of her own past.

Word on the Street

“The author writes a compelling novel about a Maggie who is trying to get away from the abuse of her ex and start a new life with her and her children while dealing with her own challenges. The book moves at a great pace, and the reader will enjoy the pace, and also start wondering what will happen to Maggie next. I thought it was a great book and would highly recommend it.“

“Good read that quickly grabbed my interest. Read entire book in one evening. Lots of suspense and mystery with several twists. Maggie, the main character, is strong and courageous as she makes difficult and potentially life threatening decisions to save her daughters from their evil, violent, and narcissistic father.“

“I can’t imagine what it’s like living with a psychopath. This book, “Fatal Flaw,” seats you in the front row and shows you. Kudos to Piper (Maggie’s daughter) who just refuses to take it anymore. She refuses to go home from school, deciding on anywhere else but there. The title hints at this story as being almost true. If not for the author herself, we know that far too many woman stay married or connected to violent men like Maggie’s husband, Axel. And like many women, Maggie has to find the strength to protect herself and her kids. Fatal Flaw is an exciting story, full of burdens and challenges for its characters. I recommend it highly.“
