Emma’s darkest secrets are buried in the past. But the truth can’t stay hidden for long.
Emma is a loving wife, a devoted mother…and an involuntary killer.
For years she’s been hiding the dead body of the teacher who seduced her
as a teen.
It’s a secret that might have stayed buried if only her life had been
less perfect. A promotion for Emma’s husband, Alex, means they can
finally move to a bigger home with their young son. But with a buyer
lined up for their old house, Emma can’t leave without destroying every
last trace of her final revenge…
Returning to the shallow grave in the garden, she finds it empty. The body is gone.
Panicked, Emma confesses to her husband. But this is only the
beginning. Soon, Alex will discover things about her he’ll wish he’d
learned sooner. And others he’ll long to forget.

Five women. One question. What is a woman for?
In this ferociously imaginative novel, abortion is once again illegal
in America, in-vitro fertilization is banned, and the Personhood
Amendment grants rights of life, liberty, and property to every embryo.
In a small Oregon fishing town, five very different women navigate these
new barriers alongside age-old questions surrounding motherhood,
identity, and freedom.
Ro, a single high-school teacher, is trying to have a baby on her own, while also writing a biography of Eivør, a little-known 19th-century female polar explorer. Susan is a frustrated mother of two, trapped in a crumbling marriage. Mattie is the adopted daughter of doting parents and one of Ro’s best students, who finds herself pregnant with nowhere to turn. And Gin
is the gifted, forest-dwelling homeopath, or “mender,” who brings all
their fates together when she’s arrested and put on trial in a frenzied
modern-day witch hunt.
