For Geeta, life as a widow is more peaceful than life as a wife…

Until the other women in her village decide they want to be widows, too.

Geeta is believed to have killed her vanished husband – a rumour she hasn’t bothered trying to correct, because a reputation like that can keep a single woman safe in rural India. But when she’s approached for help in ridding another wife of her abusive drunk of a husband, her reluctant agreement sets in motion a chain of events that will change the lives of all the women in the village….

My Thoughts:

When Geeta is accused of a terrible crime, but she is not about to correct these people as her reputation can keep her safe in India. When she is asked to do the unspeakable, will she agree to it, will she be able to help the other women in her village? It was a great read full of unexpected twists, I laughed out loud so many times. It was a thrilling and adventurous story that really made me chuckle. I look forward to reading more by this author.
