The Really Dead Wives of New Jersey - Paperback

by Astrid Dahl (Author)

A propulsive page-turning thriller following the hit reality TV show Garden State Goddesses where secrets are uncovered, intense rivalries surface, and a startling murder propels a producer on a riveting quest for the truth.

On this season of Garden State Goddesses: Getting canceled means getting killed.

When Hope Bennett marries Carmela's brother, Leo, she becomes not only a Fontana, but a Garden State Goddess--and not everyone is happy. Secrets will be revealed, decades-long rivalries will surface, and a sudden murder will lead to a reality reckoning no one is prepared for--least of all the show's producer, Eden, who must race to catch a killer and save the most dramatic season of all time.

"Juicy, gossipy, and deliciously vicious, one thing is certain: this New Jersey neighborhood has enough secrets to guarantee renewal. Readers will be clamoring for season two of this funny, dark guilty pleasure." --KATY HAYS, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters

"Like the best, most addictive reality TV, The Really Dead Wives of New Jersey is about people behaving badly--lying, cheating, back-stabbing, and worse. I started reading for all the juicy drama, but it was the murder mystery that had me racing through pages at the end." --ANA REYES, New York Times bestselling author of The House in the Pines

"Secrets, gallows humor, campy reality TV stars, and an Instagram gossip account called Shady Di--Astrid Dahl's The Really Dead Wives of New Jersey is the kind of book I wanted to live inside. LOLing and gasping my way through, I nearly wished I'd written it myself!" --ANNA DORN, author of Perfume & Pain
