The Hunting Wives

I read this because it was set in East Texas, in a town somewhat like my hometown – well, my hometown had 50,000 (when I lived there), was in the piney woods and had a Loop, and was about 90 minutes southeast of Dallas, but there the similarities end. The writing was fine, and I was surprised by the ending ... but I did not understand the protagonist at all. Only one of the women was the least bit likable, and she had the smallest part to play. Someone likened it to Desperate Housewives and I can see that comparison, so if you like that type of book and don't mind unlikable characters, then go for it!
