NATIONAL BESTSELLER
“Like all the other characters in this novel, the reader is also
drawn into the wake of the enigmatic, Gatsby-like Allan
Chase. Poignant, funny, at times shocking, The Winter Wives is
a story about the hazards of memory, with a cracking great mystery
at its heart.” —Gil Adamson, author of The Ridgerunner and The
Outlander
“The Winter Wives tells a deceptively quiet story about friendship
and secrets, which gradually reveals itself to be a gorgeous
meditation on whether we can ever truly know the people we've loved
the longest and the most.” —Lynn Coady, author of Watching You
Without Me and Hellgoing
“Taut and absorbing, The Winter Wives is a layered story of love,
deceit, friendship and identity. It is also a new kind of thriller,
where dementia raises its head, and memory itself becomes a sly
antagonist. Byron must navigate not only life-long romance and
betrayal—but the hard knot that is his own complex mind. An elegant
and fascinating book.” —Shaena Lambert, author of Petra and
Radiance
“Longtime journalist MacIntyre . . . writes with an easy command of
both the external world . . . and the internal world of complex and
frequently conflicted characters. . . . The Winter Wives [is] a
powerful, thought-provoking read.” —Toronto Star
