Dishonor Thy Wife

A husband switches into a Jekyll-Hyde after attending a medical convention and sets off a chain of events that will make a marriage go nuclear.

Six years ago Dr. Brad O’Boyle got drunk, picked up an underage girl, and got her pregnant. Her grandfather blackmailed him into marrying Ronni or else go to prison for statutory rape. For six years, Ronni and Brad have been enemies in a sexless, hellish marriage with Brad’s married mistress in between. Then Brad leaves for a week to attend a Philly medical convention. He returns home to Austin a changed man. Gone are his violent outbursts and his disdain for their daughter. He is an attentive father and doting husband sickeningly obsessed with his wife. Brad spies through the keyhole of her bedroom door.

Ronni is breathless at his attraction and kindness. She begins to perform for him, even while wondering what happened in Philly to transform Brad into a loving husband. Even his mistress seems to have vanished.

Ronni believes Brad was shot through the heart with a wife-obsession drug at the medical convention until Brad starts acting like a Jekyll-Hyde. Charming Brad leaves the house and horrible Brad returns or vice-versa.

Ronni has no idea who to trust, certainly not the medical community where Brad is well known.

Dishonor Thy Wife is a mind-blowing, page-turning, Domestic Suspense Thriller along the lines of The Girl on the Train and Gone Girl but totally unique.
