Description

Second Love. Second Marriage. Second Best? So says Minty Lloyd as she struggles to make her life work as Nathan's second wife. Mother to six year-old twins, sidelined at family gatherings by Nathan's hostile family, ostracised by his friends, she is haunted by the shadow of the glowing, successful Rose - Nathan's first wife. `The trouble is,' she concludes, `everything I do is second hand.' Yet, such is curious nature of fate, Minty finds herself united in loss with an unexpected ally - the woman she once betrayed. Buchan's signature gift for capturing women's daily joys and struggles is beautifully deployed in The Second Wife - an irresistible story of love, grief and renewal that explores that nature of friendship and the bonds that grow strongest when stretched to breaking.
