Author Description

Rose is waiting for her friends and family to arrive at their villa in Pisa when a casual glance at her husband's phone tips her world upside down. The text reads simply: 'Miss you. Love you. Come back soon.' Shaking, she does her best to sound normal when her husband breezes in moments later. Daniel has always been popular with women, she knows that. But now it seems that something has changed within their marriage. As their friends and family gather for a summer break, Rose's faith in Daniel is shaken. How well does she really know him? She fears that, after decades of marriage and children, the man who lies beside her at night is lying in other ways too. Then events take a tragic turn. Wise, wry and richly entertaining, The Secrets Women Keep celebrates the passionate, emotional lives women lead as wives, mothers and grandmothers.
