"This might be the most gripping, insightful work from the best-selling author Alafair Burke yet. She poses a seemingly impossible, if undeniably compelling, challenge: a woman must either save her life or defend her husband, but not both." ?? Entertainment Weekly

From New York Times bestselling author Alafair Burke, a stunning domestic thriller in the vein of Behind Closed Doors and The Woman in Cabin 10??in which a woman must make the impossible choice between defending her husband and saving herself.

His Scandal - Her Secret

When Angela met Jason Powell while catering a dinner party in East Hampton, she assumed their romance would be a short-lived fling, like so many relationships between locals and summer visitors. To her surprise, Jason, a brilliant economics professor at NYU, had other plans, and they married the following summer. For Angela, the marriage turned out to be a chance to reboot her life. She and her son were finally able to move out of her mother's home to Manhattan, where no one knew about her tragic past.

Six years later, thanks to a bestselling book and a growing media career, Jason has become a cultural lightning rod, placing Angela near the spotlight she worked so carefully to avoid. When a college intern makes an accusation against Jason, and another woman, Kerry Lynch, comes forward with an even more troubling allegation, their life begins to unravel. Jason insists he is innocent, and Angela believes him. But when Kerry disappears, Angela is forced to take a closer look??at both the man she married and the women she chose not to believe.

This much-anticipated follow-up to Burke's Edgar-nominated The Ex asks how far a wife will go to protect the man she lo… (mer)

The book that I stayed up into the night reading and FINISHED because I was in total suspense. This is Alafair Burke’s novel THE WIFE.

Without revealing too much. Nice girl with a young son – meet cute nice guy with career about to skyrocket. This is her moment to move on. Just as his career is sky-high… Let’s just say the subject is current, you might change who you’re rooting for from chapter to chapter, and it is full of plenty of creepiness and intrigue to hold your attention. I love when a buddy read turns into a book that I need more of thanks girls! The Husband anyone???

2.5 stars - I'm not sure I caught all that was going on. ( )

I wish I could blame Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl for the endless variety rip offs that have been recently published. This novel about a wife with a “past” and her cheating and abusive husband reeks of phony red herrings and unsatisfying twists. Alafair Burke’s writing is o.k. and the read is relatively painless. I continue to dream of the thrilling prose of Gone Girl to appear in my kindle. ( )

Better ending than expected, didn't have the ending I expected. Would recommend. ( )

Dont lie to your readers

No spoilers. It's a well-written page turner until the last couple of chapters. I'll just say I felt like I'd been played by the time I got to the end. ( )
