About this ebook

Nádia has spent her entire life taking care of her home, her husband, and her children.

Nádia lives under the control of her own daughter and Sadraque, the husband who has turned decades of marriage into fear, dependence, and humiliation.

When a mysterious man begins treating her like a woman who can still be desired, Nádia believes she has finally found a way out.

What her family has yet to realize is that the woman they have always mistaken for weak has spent years watching every lie, every threat, and every blind spot.

And a housewife knows exactly where to hide the things no one can ever find.
