The War of the Wives

By the popular author of WHEN SHE WAS BAD and THE BROKEN: At the funeral of your husband of twenty years, you don't expect to meet his other wife. Recommended for fans of LIANE MORIARTY


'Dark, clever and utterly addictive' - Lisa Jewell, author of I FOUND YOU
,
Imagine: You've been happily married for 28 years. You have three children, a lovely house and a husband who travels a lot. Even after all this time, you still love each other.

One day you get a call that turns your world upside down: your husband is dead. You are devastated. You go to the funeral... And come face to face with his other widow.

Another wife, another family. It can’t be true. You are his only wife. She is just an upstart. She can't be his widow, too. Or can she?

Reviews

  • A pacy tale of two women who discover they've been simultaneously amrried to one man - at his funeral. Witty, ludicrously melodramatic and psychologically perceptive, and you'll polish it off between Luton and Heraklion.

    Sunday Telegraph

  • A smart, gripping story that we just couldn't stop reading - you won't believe the ending. *****

    Closer Magazine
