The New York Times bestselling author of The Mother-in-Law and The Good Sister No one saw her coming The moment she laid eyes on Heather Wisher, Tully knew this woman was going to destroy their lives. Tully and Rachel are murderous when they discover their father has a new girlfriend. The fact that Heather is half his age isn't even the most shocking part. Stephen is still married to their mother, who is stricken with Alzheimer's Disease. Heather knows she has an uphill battle to win Tully and Rachel over - particularly while carrying the shameful secrets of her past. But, as it turns out, they are all hiding something. A garage full of stolen goods. An old hot-water bottle, stuffed with cash. A blood-soaked wedding. And that's only the beginning... Praise for The Younger Wife 'Smart, suspenseful, brimming with secrets' - Kate Morton 'Sally Hepworth delivers with this stay-up-late one-more-chapter gem' - Jane Harper 'At once familiar, wonderfully unpredictable and riveting' - Rosalie Ham 'Totally absorbing, brilliantly written and thoroughly enjoyable' - Herald Sun 'The queen of suburban noir' - Sunday Telegraph
Sally Hepworth is the New York Times bestselling author of six novels, most recently The Good Sister (2020), which was an instant bestseller. Her novel, The Mother-In-Law (2019) has been optioned for a TV series by Hollywood actress and producer, Amy Poehler. Drawing on the good, the bad and the downright odd of human behaviour, Sally writes incisively about family, relationships and identity. Her domestic thriller novels are laced with quirky humour, sass and a darkly charming tone. Sally's novels are available worldwide in English and have been translated into 20 languages. Sally lives in Melbourne, Australia with her husband, three children and one adorable dog.
