The Housewife

Jodie has wanted to be a housewife for as long as she can remember. After a fast romance she marries Dr. Roy Davies, a well-known psychologist, and moves into his immaculate home in Beverly Hills.

The fairy tale wears thin quickly. Roy keeps his distance, and his friends treat Jodie as a woman after his money. Worse, the house still belongs to his late wife, Deborah, whose presence hangs over every room and every conversation.

Then Jodie hears that Deborah withdrew from the world as a recluse before she died. She begins to suspect Roy had a hand in it. The more she digs, the worse his history looks: obsessive, controlling and unfaithful.

Jodie becomes convinced that Roy had something to do with Deborah's death. Going to the police is the obvious step, but it would mean exposing a secret of her own, one that could ruin her.

The whole domestic thriller plays out inside one house, and the walls close in as she digs. Jodie refuses to stay quiet, and she needs a way out before she becomes the next perfect wife to disappear.
