'Terrifying, black-humoured, black-hearted and bristling' Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl
Jonathan and Barbara Rose are the perfect couple, living the dream in their beautiful house, filled with their precious antiques, their darling children, and their prized Ferrari in the garage. It's all any red-blooded American could possibly want. But when Jonathan experiences a sudden heart attack (or so he thinks) Barbara realises that she wants a new life, without him. There's just one problem: they both want the house. For husband and wife, it's not just a residence: it's a passion, one that will escalate an ugly divorce into a full-blown battlefield, complete with weapons and casualties.
In this viciously black comedy, the Roses will each do whatever they can to destroy their better half - no matter the cost to themselves . . .
"A darkly comic study of a viciously disintegrating marriage" - * Guardian *
"Macabre, humorous and occasionally harrowing" - * Washington Post *
"A darkly twisted, sharply written, rabbit-hole of a story" - * New York Times *
"Adler writes with skill and a sense of scene" - * New York Times Book Review *
"The War of the Roses is a clever look at the break-up of a marriage . . . Both frightening and revealing" - * Washington Star *
"A very, very funny novel" - * New York Daily News *
