The Perfect Couple, a 2018 thriller by Elin Hilderbrand, is having quite the moment right now. In case you haven't read the book (or watched the smash-hit, Nicole Kidman-starring series), here's the gist: It's Nantucket wedding season, and the lavish Otis-Winbury wedding promises to be a showstopper. But then, tragedy strikes when a body is discovered in Nantucket Harbor just hours before the ceremony. Suddenly, everyone in the wedding party is a suspect—including the groom's famous mystery-novelist mother. It's thrilling, twisty and will keep you guessing until the last page. If you’ve already zoomed through the novel and are looking for books with similar themes of weddings gone sour, secrets and—gasp—murder, I’ve put together this list of five books like The Perfect Couple to add to the pile on your nightstand.
