“Gossipy, scandalous housewives behaving badly might make this the juiciest read of the season."—Library Journal (starred review)
"Sultry, salacious and utterly unpredictable....You'll devour it."—Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of Home Before Dark
The Hunting Wives share more than target practice, martinis, and bad behavior in this novel of obsession, seduction, and murder.
Sophie O'Neill left behind an envy-inspiring career and the stressful, competitive life of big-city Chicago to settle down with her husband and young son in a small Texas town. It seems like the perfect life with a beautiful home in an idyllic rural community. But Sophie soon realizes that life is now too quiet, and she's feeling bored and restless.
Then she meets Margot Banks, an alluring socialite who is part of an elite clique secretly known as the Hunting Wives. Sophie finds herself completely drawn to Margot and swept into her mysterious world of late-night target practice and dangerous partying. As Sophie's curiosity gives way to full-blown obsession, she slips farther away from the safety of her family and deeper into this nest of vipers.
When the body of a teenage girl is discovered in the woods where the Hunting Wives meet, Sophie finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation and her life spiraling out of control.

Starred review from May 1, 2021
It's not just the sweltering weather that's red-hot in Texas. Sophie and her husband Graham and cherubic son Jack have relocated from Chicago to the sleepy town of Mapleton, TX, to enjoy a simpler, slower lifestyle. Sophie, a successful blogger, thought that gardening and cooking perfect meals would be enough for her, but boredom and loneliness strain this idyllic life. When she catches the eye of sultry socialite Margot Banks and her coterie of rich and naughty friends, Sophie is captivated. Soon, she is invited to their secret club; soon, she is obsessed. At a remote lake house getaway, whiskey is poured generously, and the women shoot skeet. Eager to be included, and fascinated by their sexually suggestive play, Sophie can't resist the allure of these women, nor the seductive young men who appear in the wee hours. When teenager Abby Wilson is found in the lake, having been murdered, Sophie is under the penetrating gaze of the law. She has everything to lose. VERDICT Cobb (Big Woods) writes a clever twisty plot in this alcohol-infused, sexually charged thriller. Gossipy, scandalous housewives behaving badly might make this the juiciest read of the season. For fans of Liane Moriarty.--Gloria Drake, Oswego P.L. Dist., IL
