They say his wife killed him. If so... which one?

Tina, the rebel wife, everything Rachel isn't, straight from rehab and the Vegas strip. And Emily, the young wife, naive and scared, estranged from her Catholic family. The only thing that they had in common was Blake. Until all three are accused of his murder. When Blake is found dead under the desert sun, all three wives become suspect-not only to the police, but to each other. As the investigation draws them closer, each wife must decide who can be trusted.

For fans of The Wife Between Us and The Dry comes a chilling murder mystery that takes a domestic thriller's classic question-"Did his wife kill him?"-and twists it into an completely new type of suspense.
