You ve heard of the men who kill, but what about the women who loved them?

It s a baking hot summer in 1960s California and three women have formed an unlikely friendship. They may look like they lead idyllic lives but behind the false smiles and glittering pools lies the truth: their husbands are some of the country s most notorious serial killers.

Amidst neighbourhood gossip and pointed fingers, Beverley, Elsie and Margot are fighting to forge new paths for themselves. But when a string of local killings hits the news, the women underestimated and overlooked are hurled into an investigation of their own. After all, who better to catch a killer than those who have shared their lives with one?

Atmospheric and utterly addictive, The Secret Lives of Murderers’ Wives is an unputdownable new holiday thriller and the Good Morning America’s pick for April!
