Publisher's summary

There’s a murderer in their midst…

@thewidowsclub
In response to unprecedented media interest, we confirm that the murder victim was a member of our group. We will not be commenting further.

When April joins a support group for young widows, she’s looking for answers after her husband’s sudden death. What she finds instead is a group in turmoil.

Set up by well-meaning amateurs, the founders are tussling for control of the group, and everyone’s on edge. Added to that, secret relationships springing up between members and another new member, Nick, seems more than a little bit shady…

But the most dangerous secret of all? Not all members are who they seem to be. And they’ll go to any lengths to hide the truth…

Great Book. Slow Build to Great Finish.

I read reviews of this book on Goodreads since there weren’t any available on Audible yet. I believe some complained that the slow build was boring, but I was entertained. A slow build is better than a rushed ending to me.

The focus of the book begins mostly with the perspective of one character, but does change to others later on. I had no issues at all with the storyline. The narrator was great, but I do think she could have used inflection to better express the various characters emotions. I hate overacting but this narrator needed a little more at times. I really did not figure out everything that was going on until almost the end. The storyline was well developed and very interesting. I will look for more by this author.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
