REVIEW: THE OTHER MRS. MILLER

BY ALLISON DICKSON

SYNOPSIS FROM AUTHORS WEBSITE⇣
Two women are watching each other.
Phoebe Miller isn’t sure when the rusty car started showing up in the cul-de-sac she calls home, or why its driver would be spying on her. What could be interesting about an unhappy housewife who drowns her sorrows in ice cream and wine and barely leaves her house?

MY THOUGHTS⇣

Thoroughly entertaining despite some believability issues, some of the things that go down in this are rather absurd but I still found myself eager to listen.  Actually, the more I think about the story the more dubious I feel about it, so that's my cue to end this review.
