What Did the Wife Know?
What The Wife Knew, a new twisty thriller from Darby Kane (aka HelenKay Dimon), starts at a funeral and things get worse from there.
Due out on December 10, the story is about a wife wondering who tried to kill her husband twice before finally succeeding… because that was supposed to be her job. Her plan to marry Richmond then ruin him may have been derailed by his unexpected death, but she’s not done with him yet.
She has to survive long enough to prove that he was not what he seemed—a renowned pediatric surgeon, an infamous tragedy survivor, and a national hero. But someone is determined to make sure she doesn’t.

Praise for The Replacement Wife:
"Darby Kane deserves credit for dispensing with anything resembling a slow burn in THE REPLACEMENT WIFE. There is a rollicking, almost absurdist tone to Kane's writing that kept me engaged, [saving] room for a final surprise I didn't foresee."
- New York Times
"Gaslighting and unreliable narrators are common in contemporary psychological thrillers, but Kane uses her relatable characters and tightly calibrated pacing (as she did in Pretty Little Wife, 2019) to give her story a compelling edge."
