A haunting, emotional novel about faith, family, and the secrets that test the bonds between women.
 
Wives and Sisters by Natalie R. Collins is an emotionally charged story of loss, faith, and survival set against the backdrop of a religious community bound by silence.
 
When Allison Jensen was sixteen, her best friend disappeared — and no one in her tight-knit Mormon community ever spoke of it again. Years later, Allison has built a life outside that world, but when new revelations emerge, she’s forced to confront the past she tried to forget and the faith that shaped — and scarred — her.
 
Haunted by her friend’s disappearance and the oppressive expectations of her upbringing, Allison embarks on a journey toward truth and healing. As she uncovers the dark secrets buried beneath her hometown’s perfect surface, she must decide how much she’s willing to risk for the answers she’s always feared.
 
With empathy and courage, Collins explores the tension between belief and independence, trust and betrayal. Blending psychological depth with sharp social insight, Wives and Sisters is both a page-turner and a thought-provoking examination of identity and faith.
