In The Husband, Mark and his wife Erin are in the middle of an argument when a summer grid failure plunges their home into total darkness. It seems like a standard blackout—until Mark finds the blood. As a physician trained to read trauma scenes, Mark follows the evidence through his dark house with cold precision. He knows what the blood volume and spray patterns mean. Yet, while his medical training gives him every answer, it cannot prepare him for what is happening on the other side of his neighbor's fence.
