After the tragic unsolved murder of his beloved wife, Detective Ronald King never thought there’d be more to his life than work. But from the second he meets his city's captivating new mayor, Tabitha Knight, he’s drawn in by her lively political savvy, her warm, generous nature—and her determination to make the city work for everyone. Once he finishes investigating the toughest narcotics case he's ever faced, he’ll marry the woman he's grown to love—and support her as she makes a bound-to-be successful bid for governor …

She does not miss!!

Saundra continues to prove why she’s one of my must-read authors. The Treacherous Wife is a fast-moving, twist-heavy thriller that grabbed me from page one and didn’t let go. This story is the ultimate game of cat and mouse, and Saundra executes it with such sharp precision that I found myself glued to my seat, devouring each chapter.

Tabitha Knight is a fascinating character—calculated, composed, and always three steps ahead. Heartbreak may have shaped her, but it never slowed her down. Every move she makes feels intentional, and watching her navigate power, danger, and deception was absolutely addictive.

The plot unfolds at rollercoaster speed, packed with jaw-dropping twists, layered characters, and an explosive finale that had me gasping. Bodies drop, lies pile up, and secrets unravel in ways I did not see coming. And at the center of it all is Detective Ronald King, whose grief, loyalty, and determination collide as he uncovers evidence that hits far too close to home.
