Story of housewives, family, infidelity, second chances, and new beginnings. A seemingly normal neighbourhood with normal neighbours and issues, but a whole lot of dramas were surfacing when a new resident, single (unlike most of them who were coupled) moved to their area. It then became very abnormal, past family histories were revealed, and they were shocking! Really love this book.
