The Good Mistress By Anne Tiernan

Juliet never planned to be the other woman, but Rory was the only man she ever loved. Of course, he would go and die on her. Now, at his funeral, she hides at the back with the nobodies, while his wife and their son rightfully grieve up front. Maeve, a celebrated novelist, appears to have it all – except time for herself. Between her passive aggressive husband, two teenage sons, and caring for her ailing mother, Maeve’s success feels hollow. And when she learns a disturbing secret, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. Erica, Rory’s widow, was the perfect wife – but Rory knew things about her that no one else can ever know. And now she’s left with a question she doesn’t want the answer to: had she lost Rory long before he died?
