Imperfect Women

A Novel

Don’t miss the limited series adaptation starring Scandal’s Kerry Washington and The Handmaid’s Tale’s Elisabeth Moss, streaming on Apple TV starting March 18!

From the author of Our Kind of Cruelty comes an enthralling, irresistible novel of psychological suspense about three women and the destructive power of buried secrets.

When Nancy Hennessy is murdered, she leaves behind two best friends, an adoring husband and daughter, and a secret lover whose identity she took to the grave. Nancy was gorgeous, wealthy, and cherished by those who knew her—from the outside, her life was perfect. But as the investigation into her death flounders and her friends Eleanor and Mary wrestle with their grief, dark details surface that reveal how little they knew their friend, each other, and maybe even themselves.

A gripping, immersive novel about impossible expectations and secrets that fester and become lethal, Imperfect Women unfolds through the perspectives of three fascinating women. Their enduring, complex friendship is the knot the listener must untangle to answer the question Who killed Nancy?

Imperfect Women explores guilt and retribution, love and betrayal, and the compromises we make that alter our lives irrevocably. With the wickedly sharp insights and finely tuned suspense that has drawn comparisons to Patricia Highsmith and Paula Hawkins, Araminta Hall returns with another thought-provoking tour de force.

great story

if you liked Pretty Little Lies, you'll love this! I'm glad I found this author.

Soo different from the show!

I got antsy during the TV series and wanted more! This was a great addition because it was different enough to still be captivated by both. Also, I liked the narrator’s voice, which can make or break an audiobook for me.

Loved this book

Great writing. Fabulous story line. We’re all imperfect so I feel like we all can relate. Can’t wait to see the show.

Great narration

The story was told well. The characters were written and performed to make them believable and interesting to keep listeners keep listening.

Trusts and turns.

Wasn’t sure how this was going to turn out.
Plot different from the tv series… liked this so much better .
