Publisher's Summary

She kissed her daughter, turned out the light, and entered her own room. Too late to run, she stood frozen as a figure stepped out from behind the door and a hand covered her mouth. Fear was a bomb in her chest ready to explode. Her children. They’d already lost their daddy; they couldn’t lose her, too.

When young widow Éilis Lawlor disappears in the middle of the night, with her two little children asleep in their beds, it is a chilling case for Detective Lottie Parker. Since her husband’s tragic death, Éilis is all her children have, and when Lottie sees Éilis’ house keys and phone still lying on the kitchen counter, she is terrified for the vulnerable mother’s safety.

Then Éilis’ broken body is found by a nearby lake, wrapped in an unfamiliar yellow dress, her mouth sealed with duct tape–and Lottie’s worst fears are confirmed. Someone wanted this beautiful widow dead.

Desperate to find the person behind this brutal crime, Lottie discovers that Éilis was a member of a support group for widows. And when Jennifer, a close friend of Éilis’ from the group, is found on a rubbish heap, wrapped in a yellow dress, Lottie vows to get justice.

Lottie dives into Jennifer’s past and learns that she had lived a reclusive life since her husband died. She hadn’t been seen at work for months and had sheltered inside her immaculate home, only emerging for meetings with the group. But when Lottie questions the other women about Jennifer’s isolation, they claim to know nothing.

Lottie is certain that the remaining widows are hiding something. Can she uncover the truth before another innocent life is lost?

Fans of Robert Dugoni, Rachel Caine, and Karin Slaughter will devour Three Widows in one sitting!

Too many women characters to remember

I felt like I was reading a midsummer murder mystery with the number of murders. The female characters/suspects all sort of blended. It didn’t stop me from listening.

Not Dissapointed

I love this series and enjoy both the storyline and the characters. I look forward to the next instalment. The narrator does a great job too.

Loved it

Another great book in this series
Loved the book kept you interested all the way through and while I did guess the ending it was good to have it confirmed
I was drawn into the story that I did not want to stop but also didn’t want it to end
Hard to have to wait for the next book in Lottie as you want to know how life is turning out for them as well

Had to struggle through that one

I’ve been an avid fan since the first Lottie book - this one just failed to keep me interested. I found it harder to follow, and not in a good way. Hope the next one is better.
