"While Quinn writes with spirit on weighty subjects like domestic abuse, polygamy and religious cults, her primary and most poignant theme seems to be female friendship." â??New York Times Book Review

"An absolutely thrilling novel. I devoured it over a weekend, unable to put it down. It's a clever and completely original take on a domestic thriller." â??Alex Michaelides, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Silent Patient

Blake's dead. They say his wife killed him. If so... which one?

Polygamist Blake Nelson built a homestead on a hidden stretch of landâ??a raw paradise in the wilds of Utahâ??where he lived with his three wives:

Rachel, the first wife, obedient and doting to a fault, with a past she'd prefer to keep quiet.

Tina, the rebel wife, everything Rachel isn't, straight from rehab and the Vegas strip.

And Emily, the young wife, naïve and scared, estranged from her Catholic family.

The only thing that they had in common was Blake. Until all three are accused of his murder.

When Blake is found dead under the desert sun, all three wives become suspectâ??not only to the police, but to each other. As the investigation draws them closer, each wife must decide who can be trusted. With stories surfacing of a notorious cult tucked away in the hills, whispers flying about a fourth wife, and evidence that can't quite explain what had been keeping Blake busy, the three widows face a reckoning that might shatter all they know to be true.

For fans of The Wife Between Us and The Dry comes a chilling murder mystery that takes a domestic thriller's classic questionâ??"Did his wife kill him?"â??and twists it into an completely new type of… (altro)

Very different kind of book with a worthy mystery to unravel.

A non-conformist LDS has three wives, and is found murdered. Evidence points to the murderer being one of his wives. They all have motives, and murky backstories, but who did it?

The book is told in rotating perspective of the three wives which mainly works well, but does create overlap and repetition. Due to the narrators' voices, the writing isn't particularly sophisticated, and there are numerous small editing errors throughout.

That being said, this is a unique story, with an interesting plot. If you like murder mysteries, or just want something different, try out this book! ( )

I read this book via Secret Readers and really enjoyed it. It is the story of the three wives in a Polygamist marriage and how their husband ended up murdered. The chapters were told via the three women and it kept me entertained right up to the end. This is the first book by this author that I have read but would happily read others. My one criticism is I think it could have been told in less pages. ( )

Thank you SOURCEBOOKS Landmark & Cate Quinn for providing me with an advanced copy of Black Widows in return for an honest review.

The story covers life in a polygamist lifestyle and the abuses that occur for many women & children.

Blake Nelson and his three wives; Rachel who was the original wife, Emily, who is the youngest and unprepared to be a wife and Tina who is everything that the other 2 are not.

The three sister wives get along to a point but there's some serious jealousy amongst them.

Blake is found dead and the three wives are suspected of killing him. He had enemies outside the marriage and
there are plenty of plot twists that keep you guessing as to who killed him and why. ( )

This was an interesting thriller told from multiple POV of the wives in a polygamist relationship. I liked the shade that was thrown on each of the wives throughout the book, each time it would leave you wondering if this wife was the killer. I found the book a little bit long but I am also not sure how you could have pared down the story without losing integral information. I was able to guess who the killer was shortly before the reveal.
I would recommend this book to thriller fans. ( )
