Both of them loved him. One of them killed him . . .

Louise has had to watch her husband, Andrew, start a new family in the four years since he left her. The ‘other woman’ is now his wife – but Louise isn’t ready to let Caz enjoy the life that was once hers, or to let go of the man she still loves.

As Louise starts to dig into Caz’s past, the two women’s pretence of civility starts to slip. But in trying to undermine each other, they discover more about the man they both married.

And when Andrew is murdered at a family party, both women are found standing over the body.

It’s always the wife. But which one?

Ratings and reviews

Louise is divorced from her husband, Andrew. He has gone on with his life and eventually married "the other woman", Caz. They are still in competition with each other .. neither of them giving up the man they both love. Louise is looking onto Caz' past .. she just 'knows' there's something there. Up until now, the two women have maintained a civil relationship, but that is find changing. They have both discovered more about the man they both married. Things come to a head when Andrew is found dead at a family party. Both women are standing over his body. It’s always the wife. But which one? Well-written, it's suspenseful and full of twists and turns. There may some triggers for some .. the author has addressed the subjects of child abuse and infidelity with a light hand. The characters are solidly drawn into the midst of this most dysfunctional family. The voices of the characters are revealed chapter by chapter. The ending was unexpected. Many thanks to the author / Harper 360 - Avon / Avon Books UK / Netgalley for the digital copy of this psychological thriller.
