Four Wives by Wendy Walker

This is a first novel by Wendy Walker but I'm sure that it won't be her last. The idea of the book is certainly not a new one as you can probably guess from the title. We are introduced to the suburban women and their families - and of course to their secrets that they hide from one another and sometimes from themselves. Most of the secrets are ones that you might guess would be uncovered. Despite the somewhat predictable format of the book, I really liked it. It was well- written and I quickly began to care about the characters and what would happen to them. As we all know deep down, the grass is not always that green in the rich suburbs.
