The Other Wife Summary

The Other Wife: The #1 Bestseller by Michael Robotham

SHORTLISTED FOR THE NED KELLY AWARD FOR BEST CRIME FICTION

A secret wife. A secret life. A killer who knows
. The #1 bestseller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until its shocking climax, by multimillion-copy selling author Michael Robotham.

William and Mary have been married sixty years. William is a celebrated surgeon, Mary a devoted wife. Both are strong believers in right and wrong.

William and Olivia have been together twenty years. Olivia was once a tennis star, but her career has long since faded.

Clinical psychologist Joe O'Loughlin knows only one of these stories to be true. But when he is called to his father's hospital bed after a brutal attack, everything he once knew is turned upside down. Is it possible his father, the upstanding citizen, was leading a double life?

And who is the strange woman crying at William's bedside, covered in his blood - a friend, a mistress, a fantasist or a killer?

A confronting psychological thriller from one of the greatest crime writers of today, Michael Robotham, the bestselling author of THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS.

Review * Sunshine Coast Daily *

THE OTHER WIFE is the latest bittersweet entry in an excellent series that progressively takes a little
bit more of your heart with each encounter. And these are crime novels, so that is truly a testament
to the author's mastery of characterization. Creating characters that we are fully invested in will
always trump the impact of a complex and clever plot. THE OTHER WIFE is a shining example of
both achievements.
