The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty
Imagine that your husband wrote you a letter, to be opened after his death. Imagine, too, that the letter contains his deepest, darkest secret – something with the potential to destroy not just the life you built together, but the lives of others as well. Imagine, then, that you stumble across that letter while your husband is still very much alive… Cecilia Fitzpatrick has achieved it all – she’s an incredibly successful businesswoman, a pillar of her small community, and a devoted wife and mother. Her life is as orderly and spotless as her home. But that letter is about to change everything, and not just for her: Rachel and Tess barely know Cecilia – or each other – but they too are about to feel the earth-shattering repercussions of her husband’s secret.
Reviews
“Engaging storylines of 3 groups of women and their families is somewhat confusing at first until you get to the point of how you find out how they relate to one another. What may have helped and how other authors have titled their chapters, is by naming them as per the person’s storyline. More detailed descriptions of the characters would have been helpful at the beginning also, as there were many characters and it was a bit difficult to picture each one. However, I did find it an intriguing book that was difficult to put down as you find out how one person’s actions ultimately affect so many other people. There is something to be said about Karma.” – Review by Janice
“This book took me by surprise. I expected a predictable storyline but the book took a completely different path. I thought that the way she wrapped it all up was very interesting. I really enjoyed this book and the twists and turns the stories took.” – Review by Kelly
“The Husband’s Secret is a well written novel that takes the reader into the private lives of 3 women. The story flows between these women and intertwines the characters in unexpected ways. This was a great read and hard to put down as each chapter opens the door to another mystery. I would highly recommend this book.” – Review by Maureen
