Description
Book SynopsisGOOD MORNING AMERICA BUZZ PICK • A young Indian woman finds the false rumors that she killed her husband surprisingly useful—until other women in the village start asking for her help getting rid of their own husbands—in this razor-sharp debut. A radically feel-good story about the murder of no-good husbands by a cast of unsinkable women.”—The New York Times Book Review
Five years ago, Geeta lost her no-good husband. As in, she actually
lost him—he walked out on her and she has no idea where he is. But in her remote village in India, rumor has it that Geeta killed him. And it’s a rumor that just won’t die.
It turns out that being known as a “self-made” widow comes with some perks. No one messes with her, harasses her, or tries to control (
ahem, marry) her. It’s even been good for business; no one dares to
not buy her jewelry.
