Resumen del Editor

The widows are back! Big hair and bigger lies collide in the highly anticipated follow-up to Audible’s best-selling Young Rich Widows, where nothing’s more dangerous than a widow with nothing left to lose.

Set in neon-drenched Providence, Rhode Island, circa 1987, just two years after a plane carrying four mafia-affiliated law-firm partners exploded over the Atlantic along with the cushy lives of their once wealthy wives. Now, Krystle fights to keep their fallen law firm afloat. Justine hustles as a lawyer-in-training. Meredith owns and operates the strip club where she once danced. And Camille orchestrates honey-pot schemes for scorned women–until one of her arrangements goes terribly wrong, and she becomes implicated in the debauched Mayor Tom’s mysterious murder in the champagne room. With everything on the line, the widows must join forces once more. But as the conspiracy unravels beyond the mayor's demise, their search for justice pits first wife against second wife and widow against widow. With the widows’ fragile bond now tested, will the women cement their friendships, or is loyalty a luxury they just can’t afford?

In this thrilling expansion of the Widows universe, brimming with sloshed champagne, smeared lipstick, and lethal secrets, Desperate Deadly Widows unfolds as an edge-of-your-seat thriller where desperation wears stilettos, trust is a poker chip, and redemption comes at the cost of everything you thought you knew.

Surprising connections with a twist.

I enjoyed how the wives friendship was elevated as well as the history of the Narragansett tribe. As always I loved the humor Krystal brings to the story. I am looking forward to the next “Widows” audible!

This is such a fun series!

I had listened to the first book and didn’t want it to end! I was so excited for the 2nd book to be released. The narrators bring the characters to life and bring you back to the 80’s! I usually read dark and twisty books so this series is a great change of pace.
I hope there are a 3rd, 4th, 5th……book(s) in the works!

The characters!

This group of women made me proud, made me laugh and encouraged me to keep pushing through it all. I loved both books!
