A Letter to Three Wives
ALL OF THEM WONDERED WHILE ONE OF THEM WANDERED!
A sophisticated mid-century mystery-drama that uses a single ambiguous letter to unravel the marriages and secrets of three women, told through flashback and suspicion.
A letter is addressed to three wives from their 'best friend', announcing that she's running away with one of their husbands – but she doesn't specify which one.
