**A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK****  
"Chandler Baker, queen of the feminist thriller, has delivered once again! _The Husbands_ is a poignant exploration of what it would take for women to have it all." --Sally Hepworth, bestselling author of _The Good Sister  
_**  
**To what lengths will a woman go for a little more help from her husband?**  
Nora Spangler is a successful attorney but when it comes to domestic life, she packs the lunches, schedules the doctor appointments, knows where the extra paper towel rolls are, and designs and orders the holiday cards. Her husband works hard, too... but why does it seem like she is always working so much harder?

When the Spanglers go house hunting in Dynasty Ranch, an exclusive suburban neighborhood, Nora meets a group of high-powered women--a tech CEO, a neurosurgeon, an award-winning therapist, a bestselling author--with enviably supportive husbands. When she agrees to help with a resident's wrongful death case, she is pulled into the lives of the women there. She finds the air is different in Dynasty Ranch. The women aren't hanging on by a thread.

But as the case unravels, Nora uncovers a plot that may explain the secret to having-it-all. One that's worth killing for. Calling to mind a _Stepford Wives_ gender-swap, _New York Times_ bestselling author of _Whisper Network_ Chandler Baker's _The Husbands_ imagines a world where the burden of the "second shift" is equally shared--and what it may take to get there.

"Utterly engrossing and thoroughly timely, _The Husbands_ is both a gripping, well-crafted mystery and an insightful critique of motherhood and marriage in the modern age--working mothers everywhere will feel seen in the best possible way."  
\--Kimberly McCreight, _New York Times_ bestselling author of _A Good Marriage_
