Five years ago, Tia fell into obsessive love with a man she could never
have. Married, and the father of two boys, Nathan was unavailable in
every way. When she became pregnant, he disappeared, and she gave up her
baby for adoption.
Five years ago, Caroline, a dedicated pathologist, reluctantly adopted a
baby to please her husband. She prayed her misgivings would disappear;
instead, she's questioning whether she's cut out for the role of wife
and mother.
Five years ago, Juliette considered her life ideal: she had a solid
marriage, two beautiful young sons, and a thriving business. Then she
discovered Nathan's affair. He promised he'd never stray again, and she
trusted him.
But when Juliette intercepts a letter to her husband from Tia that
contains pictures of a child with a deep resemblance to her husband, her
world crumbles once more. How could Nathan deny his daughter? And if
he's kept this a secret from her, what else is he hiding? Desperate for
the truth, Juliette goes in search of the little girl. And before long,
the three women and Nathan are on a collision course with consequences
that none of them could have predicted.
Riveting and arresting, The Comfort of Lies explores the collateral
damage of infidelity and the dark, private struggles many of us
experience but rarely reveal.
