Told in two voices, Lover, Husband, Father, Monster is a powerful tale of love, deception and shattered dreams that reaches a chilling climax as a well-intentioned, conventional marriage collapses. In Book 2, His Story, Stuart, a conservative businessman, outlines his recollections of the development of the relationship, marriage and family life with Jennifer. He sees himself as the captain of a ship. Sometimes it encounters rough seas and at other times enjoys calm waters. Either way, somebody must be at the helm and Stuart considers that it is only right that it is always him. But he becomes aware that Jennifer is dabbling in an internet dalliance and as his marriage unravels he becomes more determined to control her and the household. When confronted with the fact that his wife - the mother of his three children - intends to leave him for another man, he turns insanely jealous and seeks revenge that he knows will hurt her most. The spiteful end leaves the reader breathless. * In Book 3 of the trilogy, Lover Husband Father Monster - The Aftermath, the results of Stuart's heinous actions are dire and widespread, watched closely by the whole of Ireland who live through this tragedy daily via social media and the press.
