What if the only way to bury the truth is to bury your husband?
The first attempt at killing her husband was the night of the dinner party.
Wendy and Thom met at school and through four decades of birthday milestones, weekends away and raising a son, they've lived a seemingly comfortable and successful life together. But what are the dark secrets their marriage was built on, and what has now, fatally, changed?
