Rose Cromwell is the mother of two daughters, grandmother to five, married to Mike for the last thirty-five years. An ordinary, happy marriage… until the night that Rose kills her husband, using his dental drill.

All across London, wives are murdering their husbands in the most brutal of ways, seemingly without motive. Detective Mumtaz Ali of the Met Special Crime Unit is thrown into an investigation with no links between the cases and no clues to follow - until she discovers a connection that might hold the key to the killings.

It seems that these women wanted to change themselves, but searching for perfection transformed them into something unthinkable, terrifying to themselves and their families. And as Mumtaz circles closer to the truth that could halt the murders, she finds herself in danger of being silenced… forever.
