Wives' Murder Club by 1-800-Smackabitxh

The dates match. Everything added up. How could I not realize it? The bodies. The charges. The gossip. The rumours. The accuracy. The deaths. Every single body went missing. They were right, I should have listened. I knew something was weird, but not this bad. Church on Sundays, book club on Mondays, Bible study on Wednesdays, their kids' games on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Charity donations on Fridays, and dates on Saturdays. I guess its true what they say. The biggest monsters don't hide in the darkness of your closet. Instead, they smile in your face in broad daylight. The worst demons don't conceal themselves in your shadow. They thrive in the light. The darkest souls own the brightest smiles. A light so captive, you don't even realize they've gotten so close. Don't even realize when you've befriended them and their darkness has touched you. So, Sometimes, to find the ugliest monster, you have to look in the mirror. P.S, the tags should serve as a warning as well. This story is my own, which means I own the characters, plot, etc. However, I did get some inspiration from James Patterson's WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB, just with a slight twist ;)

Can she work it out before the body count rises, while fending off the advances of a beautiful brunette. Content Warning: This book deals with the investigation of murder. By its very definition that is violence. Some chapters in the book depict murder. It is a dark thriller and some passages are violent including aspects of torture. The book also depicts past stories of living in an old style asylum. CSA is also detailed in a residential childcare setting. This is not to glorify violence but to point to stages within the plot. There is also scenes of a sexual nature. Derogatory language and discussion of drug misuse. If you are sensitive to any of the above. This story might not be for you.
