'Terrifying, black-humoured, black-hearted and bristling' Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl
Jonathan and Barbara Rose are the perfect couple, living the dream in their beautiful house, filled with their precious antiques, their darling children, and their prized Ferrari in the garage. It's all any red-blooded American could possibly want. But when Jonathan experiences a sudden heart attack (or so he thinks) Barbara realises that she wants a new life, without him. There's just one problem: they both want the house. For husband and wife, it's not just a residence: it's a passion, one that will escalate an ugly divorce into a full-blown battlefield, complete with weapons and casualties.
In this viciously black comedy, the Roses will each do whatever they can to destroy their better half – no matter the cost to themselves . . .

"The divorcing Roses go to battle over their beautiful home and the objects in it - and take revenge to stunning heights. You may have seen the fantastic 1989 film with Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas, but the book is even more terrifying, black-humoured, black-hearted and bristling because you're trapped inside the self-justifying, increasingly mad minds of [Jonathan] and Barbara Rose"
