My Husband’s an Author is a gripping psychological thriller by James Caine, published in 2025. The story follows Emily Dyer and her well known crime -thriller writing husband, Stephen Dyer. From the outside, their marriage appears flawless- loving, successful, and stable. But that illusion begins to fracture when Emily stumbles upon disturbing internet searches on Stephen’s computer like how like to kill your wife and how to collect life insurance money.

At first, Emily tries to convince herself that the searches are merely research for Stephen’s new novel. As a crime writer, this explanation seems plausible- until doubt creeps in. The more she notices the harder it becomes to ignore the growing sense that something far more sinister may be lurking beneath the surface. As Emily’s suspicions deepen the tension within their seemingly perfect marriage escalates, blurring the line between fiction and reality.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. The twists and turns kept my attention from start to finish, making it nearly impossible to put down. Just when I thought I had the story figured out, the author pulled the narrative in another direction. James Caine, I can say, masterfully keeps readers guessing constantly challenging assumption and delivering a suspenseful, thought proking read that lingers longer after the first page.
