A page-turning near-future domestic suspense novel from bestselling author Sarah Gailey, a chilling read combining the eerie family drama of Shirley Jackson with the propulsive pacing of Ruth Ware.

"When they said all happy families are alike, I don't think this is what they meant…"

Evelyn Caldwell's husband Nathan has been having an affair -- with Evelyn Caldwell. Or, to be exact, with a genetically cloned replica.

After a morning that begins with a confrontation and ends with Nathan's body bleeding out on the kitchen floor, the two Caldwell wives will have to think fast--before sharing everything includes sharing a jail cell.

The Echo Wife is a non-stop thrill ride of lies, betrayal, and identity, perfect for fans of Big Little Lies and Killing Eve.
