The rain hammers the glass outside. My husband has stoked the wood burner with a fresh supply of logs, and I've just put a joint of beef in the oven. It's the most clichéd Sunday afternoon ever, and it's the most heavenly one, too. Little do I know that days later, the ash in the fire will be all that remains of us... My perfect life... I really thought I had it all - a dream job as a doctor in small town, a stunning modern house, a family I adore - but that illusion shattered the moment my husband Jeremy left on a work trip and vanished without a trace. Now my son and I are all alone in the world. My missing husband... My best friend thinks Jeremy had an accident up in the mountains, that I'll never see him again and need to move on. I know he loves us too much to ever abandon us, but my head is still spinning with the texts I found on his phone before he left. We've been so happy for so long, but do I really know the man I married? The night I can't remember... Everything changed the night of the medical conference weeks before Jeremy disappeared. I wrack my brains for answers, but everything goes blank after my first drink. Ever since, I've felt like I'm being followed and can't explain why panic thunders in my chest every time I see my newest patient. If he's not local to the village, then why does he seem so familiar? And so dangerous? As I piece together the shards of what really happened that fateful evening, only one thing can possibly be true: everyone is lying, even me... Readers love Samantha Hayes: 'Wow!...

A riveting memoir of life inside one of North America's most notorious polygamous cults.

Read the controversial book Howard Stern considers required reading for any man (or woman) even considering divorce! This third edition is newly revised and updated. Unlike other divorce books, this one preaches no stay-together sermons and offers no sugarcoated guidance. When author Lee Covington appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show the audience was stunned to learn that this book was actually written by a woman. How to Dump Your Wife is for those who have accepted that sometimes a marriage is simply beyond saving—regardless of whether a desperate or vengeful wife can accept that fact. Irreverent, funny, and brutally honest, Lee Covington teaches men to survive divorce despite a legal system in which the cards are heavily stacked against them. Her practical advice on withstanding the emotional and financial ravages of divorce focuses on how to survive three types of wives: (1) the doting, clingy sweetheart who wants to stay married at all costs; (2) the shrill, abusive, spiteful, soul-sucking harpy; and (3) the self-absorbed career woman with powerful friends and her own agenda. Let this book get you through the tough times with great advice and laughter.

"Genre-bending and darkly comic, Grushin's fourth novel is a weird and wonderful triumph." –O, the Oprah Magazine Cinderella wants her Prince Charming dead in this sophisticated fairy-tale for the twenty-first century. Cinderella married the man of her dreams--the perfect ending she deserved after diligently following all the fairy-tale rules. Yet now, thirteen and a half years later, things have gone badly wrong and her life is far from perfect. One night, fed up and exhausted, she sneaks out of the palace to get help from the Witch who, for a price, offers love potions to disgruntled housewives. But as the old hag flings the last ingredients into the cauldron, Cinderella doesn't ask for a love spell to win back her Prince Charming. Instead, she wants him dead. Endlessly surprising, wildly inventive, and decidedly modern, The Charmed Wife weaves together time and place, fantasy and reality, to conjure a world unlike any other. Nothing in it is quite what it seems--the twists and turns of its magical, dark, and swiftly shifting paths take us deep into the heart of what makes us unique, of romance and marriage, and of the very nature of storytelling.
