"This
summer's Gone Girl I gobbled
it down in one sitting." Anne
Lamott, People
Jodi and
Todd are at a bad place in their marriage. Much is at stake, including the
affluent life they lead in their beautiful waterfront condo in Chicago, as she,
the killer, and he, the victim, rush haplessly toward the main event. He is a
committed cheater. She lives and breathes denial. He exists in dual worlds. She
likes to settle scores. He decides to play for keeps. She has nothing left to
lose. Told in alternating voices, The Silent Wife is about a marriage in the
throes of dissolution, a couple headed for catastrophe, concessions that can’t
be made, and promises that won’t be kept. Expertly plotted and reminiscent of
Gone Girl and These Things Hidden, The Silent Wife ensnares the reader from
page one and does not let go.
