I Know Where You Buried Your Husband

Good friends keep your secrets. Best friends bury them for you.

Sophia, Safa, Ella, Ajola and Caoimhe have always stuck together. Birthdays, weddings, children…

So when they find Sophia’s husband dead on the living room floor – and then find themselves framed for his murder – the answer is obvious.

Stick together once more and bury his body.

And it seems they’ve got away with it, until Sophia receives a chilling text . . .

I know where you buried your husband.

They promised to protect each other. But a secret this deadly might change everything.

Marie O'Hare's voice is really refreshing; funny, bold, wry whilst constantly underpinned by something deeply truthful that really resonated with me. Obviously the pacy and surprising plot kept me turning the pages, but it was the detail and depth of these characters paired with the careful exploration of their relationships that made me stay up til the early hours to finish it. I want to press it into the hands of every woman I know (and maybe, even, some men!).
