Summary

 Domestic noir with a chick-lit twist: a story of laughter, sisterhood, and women daring to do things differently. Perfect for fans of Jane Caro's The Mother and Liane Moriarty's Big Little Lies.


Welcome to Shellwater Bay ... where the sea is calm, the scenery perfect ... and three women are quietly planning a revolution.

Joany appears to have the perfect life, but behind closed doors, she's hiding a dangerous secret. Heather thought her marriage was rock-solid until her husband demands a divorce. Steph is raising kids with a man who thinks 'helping out' means calling his mother.

Bonded at their gym by sweat and fury, the three women start asking the hard questions: About the relationships they're in, the rules they've obeyed, and the silent bargains they've made to keep the peace.

But peace has its price. And when the simmering rage starts to bubble over, these new friends decide a crime or two is in order ...


With sharp wit, heartfelt empathy and unflinching honesty, The Angry Wives Club is a story of women doing things differently - breaking cycles, reclaiming power, and discovering what happens when female friendship becomes the most radical act of all.©2026 Gabrielle Stroud (P)2026 W.

This was an enjoyable listen but also thought provoking. In fact it provoked rage in me that I know has been simmering for many years, as it does for most women. Definitely recommend

I am a fan of this author.
Her book the things that matter most is my favourite book ever and this is a close second. I love the Aussie way of writing and the Aussie character, the Aussie humour and the story line of friendships and sticking together, and what’s important in life resonated with me. A book I highly recommend

Best read for a long time

I loved this book. Serious issues raised (being DV) and the dissatisfaction of many women in relationships with men and Eve other women. There were also many laugh out loud moments, but the book leaves the reader understanding the importance of female friendships, the importance of calling out bad behaviours and the importance of standing up for one's self. Easy reading and loveable characters.
