A woman's husband asks for a divorce and the wife's paints herself as a total victim. Second half of the book, from the mistress's perspective shows maybe the wife isn't as pure as she thinks she is. Also, the husband is a jerk the whole time.
I didn't like any of the characters and the "twist" is now such a FMcF thing that I spend the whole first half wondering what's not true. She really needs to write more novels where the twist is not the main plot point. It was great in The Housemaid when nobody expected it, but it's getting pretty old now.
2.5 stars.
