The Wife

Author: Alafair Burke

Gripping and suspenseful, “The Wife” delves into the complexities of marriage and trust. Angela’s perfect life with her charismatic husband unravels when he’s accused of a horrific crime. As secrets emerge, she’s forced to confront her past and question everything she thought she knew. Burke’s masterful storytelling kept me up late, turning pages and second-guessing every character. A haunting exploration of loyalty, deception, and the lengths we go to protect those we love.

Sometimes the lies you tell are less frightening than the loneliness you might feel if you stopped telling them.
