Livre Plus GOOD HASBANDS

Three very different mothers all receive the same letter, which accuses their husbands of committing rape 20 years ago. Together they have to work out the right thing to do. In Good Husbands we follow the three women on their journey from disbelief, dissent and fear to something like solidarity. There’s Priyanka, a health and ethics teacher at a local secondary school, Jess, an office manager in art gallery and Steffi, a dental receptionist, finally secure in her second marriage, but struggling with three teen girls. As they try to uncover the truth, the women must work out who they believe, what they should do and whether the men they loved can be trusted ever again …
‘Multilayered, unflinchingly honest, and teeming with nerve-shattering suspense, Good Husbands by Cate Ray had me flying through the pages. Spellbound, I walked the heartbreaking journey right along with the women of Good Husbands – felt their shock, fear and uncertainty as they grappled to do the right thing … Ray has created a much-needed space for complex conversations surrounding consent and whether we really know the people we love. An absolute triumph.’

‘In an emotional and powerfully evocative story, three women grapple with a discovery that could shatter their lives.’
