3.5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
“I once heard someone say that women’s greatest fears in life are sexual assault and death. Men? The thing that keeps them up at night is the idea of being rejected and humiliated by a romantic prospect.”
In 1966, three wives of convicted murderers work together to catch a local killer targeting women. Beverley, Elsie, and Margot have all bonded while they try to rebuild their lives and live with the guilt that haunts them. Stopping a murderer would give them purpose and redemption, but of course, the police will not take them seriously.
This was a breezy (despite being about serial killers) read that will be perfect for summer. The mystery of finding out who the killer is kept me interested, and the pacing was quick.
There wasn’t a whole lot of character development, and Beverley managed to be actually a kind of awful MC.
The plot twists and pacing made this book a fun read, and the ending wrapped up nicely!
