The Spare Wife: A Psychological Domestic Thriller of Secret Marriage, Double Life, and Betrayal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798258886491)

He had two wives.
Two cities. Two lives. Eleven years without a single mistake.

Marcus Hale is a man of extraordinary discipline. A senior partner at a global consulting firm, he divides his time between New York and London - and between Vivienne, the sharp-edged attorney he married first, and Cara, the woman who makes him feel like he can breathe.

He doesn't think of himself as a liar.
He thinks of himself as someone who has solved a difficult equation.

For eleven years, the system holds.

Then small things begin to shift. A question asked too precisely. A phrase repeated in the wrong place. A private investigator who finds nothing-clean, controlled, and somehow more unsettling than evidence would have been.

Marcus calls it paranoia.
He calls it coincidence.
He calls it anything except what it might actually be.

Because control only feels absolute until something starts responding to you.

And Marcus is no longer certain who is responding to whom.

The Spare Wife is a razor-sharp psychological thriller about discipline, deception, and two women who decided that revenge is best executed like a business plan.

Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, The Wife Between Us, and The Silent Patient.

Some men think they're playing chess.
They don't realize they've already been in checkmate for years.
