Aprašymas

A biting and propulsive thriller in which a pact made twenty years before lands one woman at the heart of a murder investigation--but is she the next victim, or the primary suspect?

"Singularly creepy." ―​New York Times Book Review

"A dark and funny page-turner." ―Ayelet Gundar-Goshen, author of Waking Lions

As soon as Sheila hears the news, she knows the police will be calling. Dina Kaminer--one of Israel's preeminent feminist scholars and Sheila's oldest friend--has been found murdered, the word "mother" carved into her forehead and a baby doll fixed to her hands.

For Sheila, that word is a warning. Two decades before, she and Dina had joined a group of women who swore they would never have children. Instead, they would follow the example of "The Others," women the Torah considered childless, but they saw as willingly child-free. Sheila has upheld her vow year after year, even as her friendship with Dina fell apart. But now, as more women turn up dead, each transformed into a mother against her will, Sheila must decide if she's made the right choice . . . and who might want to make her pay the ultimate price.

An instant international bestseller with shades of The Perfect Nanny and My Sister, the Serial Killer, The Others is a dark, witty, and riveting psychological thriller.
