Strangers

About the book

A memoir about the sudden, unexplained end of a twenty-year marriage. In early 2020, Belle Burden’s husband abruptly announced he was leaving, with no prior warning or discussion. Burden revisits their life together searching for clues she may have missed, while reckoning with her own family history and societal expectations of how women should respond to betrayal. The book traces her transformation from a quiet, compliant woman into someone determined to reclaim her voice and rebuild her life.

Readers on Hardcover call it tense, emotional and dark.
