Trad Wife

A Novel

De: Saratoga Schaefer

Narrado por: Rachel Jacobs

A "traditional wife" influencer allows a demonic creature to impregnate her in this unnerving horror novel, perfect for fans of Nightbitch and Mary, from the author of Serial Killer Support Group.

Every #tradwife needs a baby. She’ll get one at any cost.

When Camille Deming isn’t cooking, cleaning, or homesteading in her picture-perfect country farmhouse, she’s posting about her tradwife lifestyle for her online followers. She takes inspiration from other tradwives on social media, aspiring to be like them, but Camille’s missing a key component: a baby. And contrary to what she posts online, things with her husband, Graham, have been strained. Pressured by her eager followers, Camille fears that without a baby, her relationship will suffer and her social media will never grow out of its infancy.

When Camille discovers a mysterious, decrepit well in the wheatfield behind her house, she makes a wish for a baby. Afterward, she has unsettling experiences that she convinces herself are angelic in nature, and when she’s visited one night by a strange creature, her wish comes true.

Camille’s pregnancy announcement gets more engagement than anything she’s ever posted—so what if Graham’s reaction is lukewarm? Camille’s life is finally falling into place. Never mind that her pregnancy is developing freakishly rapidly and she’s suddenly craving raw meat. Being a traditional wife is worth it.

Rosemary’s Baby for the digital age, this disturbing horror novel is one you’ll want to devour in just one bite.

Thank you!

I lived in the Christian culture for years and definitely escaped a toxic situation. I absolutely devoured this book in record time and will be relistening!

Amazing story

I loved everything about this book and the narrator. This book is a deep look into wants and desires a the price of obtaining them. With a strong sense of Good for her and what did i just read?

Unhinged in the best way

This was such a wild ride! I didn’t know where we were going the entire time and loved the narration!

Unexpected

Gross ending. I had to fast forward the last 15 min, although the first part of the book was actually very good
