The Wife Stalker by Liv Constantine

---

The Wife Stalker is a domestic fiction/thriller that keeps you guessing to the end. Joanna lives in wealthy Westport, CT with her attorney husband, Leo, and two small children. She thinks everything is fine although her husband does withdraw at times with symptoms of depression. When he starts to be more involved in their family life she is reassured. However, it turns out he is having an affair with a recent Westport transplant named Piper. Very quickly, Joanna is served with divorce papers and turned out of the family home. Leo and Piper get married and he gets custody of the children. Joanna is devastated and blames Piper and begins to look into her past uncovering some disturbing stories. Told from both Joanna's voice and Piper's, the author does a good job of making sure you are not sure who is right and who is wrong. The ending will take you by surprise! -Jen C.
