The Other Mothers is a twisty turny fast-paced thriller. If you loved Greenwich Park you’ll love this one too!

Trish is balancing her freelance journalism career with being a full time mom. Tom’s on A&E rotation it seems like most of the time, and doesn’t have time to help their son, Finn, through his socially awkward phases at play school. Trish meets a circle of sophisticated moms who help Finn and her settle in. But it’s not all play dates and afternoon cocktails. Trish’s investigative nature keeps on turning her back to the death of a young woman several months ago. The more she digs into the untimely the more convinced she becomes that there was foul-play at work!

Looking for a satisfying, stay at home snow day? This is it!
