My Husband’s Wife
Published on: January 20, 2026
Prepare for a mind-bending descent into a marriage built on secrets! If you thought you knew the person sleeping next to you, think again. From the queen of the "unreliable narrator" comes a domestic thriller that proves the truth is often more dangerous than any lie.
What is the Story?
My Husband’s Wife spans fifteen years of a complex, intertwined web of obsession and deceit. The story follows Lily, a young lawyer who marries Ed, a man she loves deeply but perhaps doesn't fully understand. As Lily takes on her first murder case—defending a woman accused of killing her own husband—she becomes increasingly fascinated by the dark parallels between her client's life and her own.
Interwoven with Lily’s perspective is that of Carla, their young neighbor. Carla is only a child when the story begins, watching Lily and Ed from across the hall, but her observations are far more astute—and more chilling—than anyone realizes. As the years pass, Carla grows up, and the boundaries between the two households begin to blur.
When past secrets finally collide with present betrayals, Lily and Carla find themselves locked in a deadly game where the prize is a life they both claim as their own.
