Lansens, Lori

The wife's tale : a novel / Lori Lansens - 1st U.S. ed. - Toronto : Alfred A. Knopf Canada 2009 - 374 p. ; 22 cm

On the eve of their Silver Anniversary, Mary Gooch is waiting for her husband Jimmy--still every inch the handsome star athlete he was in high school--to come home. As night turns to day, it becomes frighteningly clear to Mary that he is gone. Through the years, disappointment and worry have brought Mary's life to a standstill, and she has let her universe shrink to the well-worn path from the bedroom to the refrigerator. But her husband's disappearance startles her out of her inertia, and she begins a desperate search.
