Imagine your husband has two other wives. You’ve never met the other wives…and then one day, you find a scrap of paper in his pocket…. The synopsis had me interested right away. What starts out as a story about a polygamist relationship with a twist becomes more and more twisted as the story goes one. It becomes pretty clear right away that this is not a story about “Sister-wives”. The wives aren’t allowed to meet each other. Their husband, Seth, keeps his lives and marriages with each wife separate, not even allowing them to know each other’s’ names. This is a psychological thriller with so many twists and turns that the reader will be confused about what is real and what is not and will stay that way from about halfway through the book to the last page. While that was a strength in the book, it was also a bit of a weakness, there were certain plot points that just weren’t believable. Even when you begin to get the feel of the ebb and flow of truth and delusion, the end will blindside you. A fast and solid read, perfect for a book club choice, a winter read or a rainy weekend. A solid 3.5 Thank You to NetGalley and the publisher for the e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.
