My Husband's Wife

Alice Feeney

Eden Fox comes home to Spyglass, the cliffside house in Hope Falls, ready for her first art exhibition — and finds another woman wearing her life. Her key no longer fits. Her husband Harrison insists the stranger is his wife. Six months earlier, Olivia "Birdy" Bird inherits Spyglass after a terminal diagnosis and brushes against Thanatos, a clinic that claims it can name your death date. Identity, gaslighting, and revenge braid until nobody in Hope Falls is who they say they are.

“One house. One husband. Two women. Someone is lying.”

My Husband's Wife Icebreakers

Answer in under 30 seconds. These connect to the book’s themes without spoiling the story.

  1. Personality Reveal

    1. If someone locked you out of your own house as a prank, would you laugh, spiral, or immediately call the police?

  2. Personality Reveal

    2. Are you better at reading people in person or spotting lies in texts and emails?

  3. Personality Reveal

    3. Do you keep backups of everything important (IDs, photos, passwords) or live one lost-phone away from chaos?

  4. Funny & Light

    4. What's the most "main character in a thriller" thing that has happened to you in a small town or neighborhood?

  5. Funny & Light

    5. If a lookalike started living your life, what's the first habit of yours they'd fail to copy?

  6. Funny & Light

    6. Would you rather know your death date or know who would show up at your funeral — and why is that a terrible party question?

  7. Would You Rather

    7. Would you rather live in a stunning cliff house with sketchy tunnels, or a boring flat with excellent locks?

  8. Would You Rather

    8. Would you rather your partner forget your coffee order or forget a major anniversary in public?

  9. Would You Rather

    9. Would you rather be doubted by the police or doubted by your own family?

  10. Hot Take

    10. Hot take: twist endings are better when you feel tricked AND still satisfied. Agree?

  11. Hot Take

    11. Hot take: if a thriller needs a death-date clinic, it's already leaning into satire. Defend or destroy.

  12. Hot Take

    12. Hot take: small towns are scarier than cities because everyone thinks they already know you.

  13. Personal Connection

    13. Have you ever had to prove you were yourself — passport desk, account recovery, workplace badge — and how weird did it feel?

  14. Personal Connection

    14. What's one photo or object that would best prove "this is my life" if someone tried to erase you?

  15. Personal Connection

    15. Name a house or place that still feels haunted by a version of you who used to live there.
