The Husband's Secret - question/spoiler

[Sílvia]

So I'm confused by the ending. Where it says John Paul will never know it was an aneurysm that killed Janie. So she had an aneurysm that burst at the *exact* moment that JP was trying to strangle her? Isn't that too much of a coincidence? Or does she mean it burst BECAUSE he was trying to strangle her? In that case, wouldn't he still have been the murderer?

Hm, I don't think I'd checked that part. Thanks! And geez, isn't that a tad too contrived?

I just finished this book on the bus home from work today. I kind of thought the whole ending was rather contrived, TBH. It was an entertaining enough read (and very quick), but I overall found it pretty lacking in substance.
