The New York Times bestselling novel soon to be a major motion picture starring Nicole Kidman, for fans of The Woman in the Window and The Silent Patient."I gobbled it down in one sitting." – Anne Lamott, PeopleJodi 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.

"Really unsympathetic characters, with a penchant for self-delusion"
Diane Morello
"I really liked this and thought the ending was a surprise! I figured some things out but not all which was fun to discover with the book!"

"I’m listening to this right now. I have 2.5 hours left. Somebody please tell me that something interesting happens. There better be a twist ending or something. The review equated this to Gone Girl and I am not getting that vibe at ALL. "
Libby Staebell
"Such a slow read. Predictable. None of the characters are likable. Just, no. "

"Definitely a "psychological" thriller, I felt it delved a little too deeply into psychology in general, but still an interesting read"

"This book in no way shape or form should be compared to Gone Girl it wasn't even on the same level. Neither character had any redeeming qualities so it was hard to care about what happened in their lives. The story was bogged down in unnecessary details about psychology."
