The Best Way to Bury Your Husband

Four new friends. Four dead bodies. One big problem . . .





Four new friends. Four dead bodies. One big problem . . .

Four new friends. Four dead bodies. One big problem . . .


Sally never meant to cave her husband's head in with a skillet. Or at least she didn't until suddenly, she did.

But Sally isn't the only woman in town being pushed to breaking point. When coincidence brings four strangers together, a surprising solidarity is formed.

So can they find the best way to bury their husbands - and get away with it?

Darkly funny and with a big beating heart, The Best Way to Bury Your Husband combines four very different women, one unexpected friendship and several spades in this irresistible page-turner.

Praise for The Best Way to Bury Your Husband

Tense, funny, moving and strangely cosy

Holly Bourne

Darkly comedic... Heartbreaking and hilarious

Jesse Sutanto

Perfect for those who like feminism with their dead bodies

Julie Cohen

Casale’s book goes beyond the statistics to tell four very human stories

The Washington Post

A sharp, entertaining, and fast-paced story that’s as much about revenge as it is about sisterhood and liberation
