Synopsis

She trusted him. Now she's paying the price. In the second book of the Doctor's Wife series, Fern loved her husband, Doctor Drew Devlin, but he betrayed her, and now he is dead. Using his life insurance money, she buys a luxurious home and tells herself the worst days are behind her and that her secret is safe. Then she meets Roger, a man who seems nothing like Drew: spontaneous, romantic, and above all honest. For the first time she lets herself hope. But one night, curled up in bed together, Roger says something that makes her blood run cold, something that suggests he may know the truth about her life as the doctor's wife. Is Roger really who he claims to be, or has Fern walked straight into a new danger? A completely unputdownable psychological thriller with a jaw-dropping twist, The Doctor's Widow deepens the saga of Fern Devlin, trading on buried guilt, mistrust, and the impossibility of escaping the past.
