Dirty Laundry

A Gripping and Jaw-Dropping Psychological Thriller

by Cori Nevruz

About DIRTY LAUNDRY

The once-perfectionist Samantha discovers that having control over her own life is quite different when adding a husband and children into the mix. As the structure in her life fades away, and control is beyond her reach, Samantha’s insecurities grow. Self-doubt is only compounded when combined with her husband’s insults and high expectations. Samantha does her best to put on a happy face and flaunt her seemingly perfect life, but a quick look into her journal shows the thoughts from the mind of a mom on edge. 


Playing the part of the perfect wife and mom to those in her community helps to hide her secrets until airing her dirty laundry to a new friend puts both of their lives at risk. What appears to be the perfect suburban life to an outsider, is only a cover for an imperfect marriage and an insecure wife. A fast-moving and suspenseful look into the mind of a mom on edge. Not everything is what it seems.

A good portrayal of what goes on behind closed doors… fast-paced and gets to the action quickly. Samantha wears a mask to the world but her journal reflects her inner pain and torment.

What a read! This is a psychological thriller that will bring you deep into the main character’s life. Scratch the surface of the someone’s perfect life and it won’t take long to find the dirty laundry—is that a bloodstain?” —Starred Review 5/5


This is a fun, easy read that is impossible to put down. I loved the main character, Samantha, because I could relate to her so well being a stay home mom in suburban America, myself. Her motherhood humor made me laugh out loud several times! The relationship she has with her husband is jaw dropping disturbing. I loved this book!” —Starred Review 5/5
