What to expect

A Richard and Judy Book Club bestseller, The Wife Between Us is a shocking romantic thriller with twists you won't see coming. From Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekannen, the duo behind The Golden Couple.

'A fiendishly clever thriller in the vein of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. This one will keep you guessing' – Anita Shreve, bestselling author of The Stars are Fire

Marrying a man with a past was always going to come with problems – but you never expect to become the focus of another woman’s obsession.

Nellie just wanted to live the life she’d always dreamed about with Richard. But who is his ex-wife, Vanessa? Nellie thinks she knows everything about his previous marriage. That it was a disaster, plain and simple. But, as secrets are unearthed, she starts to think that maybe there is more to the wife before her . . .

Only one thing is certain. She is not who you think she is.

Critics Review

It's easy to see why Steven Spielberg has snapped up the film rights to this book, which is an original take on a winning formula . . . The small twists and turns of the plot are riveting but the pivotal surprise is gobsmacking and it succeeds because of the scrupulous attention to the psychological details of all the characters
Daily Mail
A clever thriller with masterful twists
Karin Slaughter
A twisty, mind-bending novel about marriage and betrayal. A gripping plot and fascinating characters; this book will keep you turning the pages and guessing until the very end. A must-read!
Lauren Weisberger, New York Times bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada
A fiendishly smart cat-and-mouse thriller
New York Times Book Review
Fans of Gone Girl and The Girl On The Train will adore this classy domestic noir set in New York . . . it has a humdinger of a twist which I didn't see coming . . . the result is a fast-paced and hugely enjoyable thriller
Sunday Express
Loved it! What a fantastic story, and the twist completely blind-sided me - and that is rare, believe me!
Mandasue Heller
Buckle up, because you won't be able to put this one down
Glamour
The Wife Between Us delivers a whipsmart, twisty plot in a taut, pacy narrative. It's terrific and troubling. This is one scary love triangle where you won't know who to trust. I loved it
Gilly Macmillan, New York Times bestselling author of What She Knew
A fiendishly clever thriller in the vein of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. This one will keep you guessing.
Anita Shreve, author of The Stars are Fire
An angry ex-wife is stalking a young, innocent fiancée who is a carbon copy of her former self…or so it seems. Since you know there’s got to be more to it than this, the fun is in trying to figure it out before they tell you. We didn’t! Easy to read, smoothly put together
Kirkus Reviews
This amazing story gallops along at breakneck speed, with an ending that smacks you between the eyes and takes your breath away. These authors are destined to become trail blazers in the field of psychological suspense books that explode in your hands!
Nancy Simpson-Brice, Book Vault
A page turner and as compelling a read as any I’ve ever read, including Gone Girl. So much great detail with believable characters.
Sue Roegge, Chapter2Books
Unforgettable twists lead to shocking revelations all the way through the epilogue
Publishers Weekly
Readers who were enthralled by B.A. Paris’s Behind Closed Doors and Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl will love the skewed psychology and shifting perspectives of this domestic thriller
Library Journal
With shocking twists, this intricate thriller proves all is not what it seems for the discarded first wife and the woman about to marry her ex. Addictive
Woman & Home
A scorned woman obsesses over her younger replacement . . . you may think you've heard this one before, there are surprises in store . . . fabulously twisty
Good Housekeeping
Page-flicker . . . keeps you guessing
