The Plot Twist

Tom Mitchell was the man who called everything "nice." Who watched ESPN while Claire disappeared. Who ate her soufflés without tasting them for thirteen years.

That Tom is gone.

The man who shows up at Claire's gallery opening has been in therapy for fourteen months, can name photographers she admires, and makes a risotto that's actually good. He shook her hand goodbye and she thought about it for three days.

Now they're having coffee that turns into three hours. Texting like teenagers. Negotiating the terms of something that doesn't have a name yet—something built on the ruins of what they destroyed, with rules they write themselves on a napkin in the IKEA café.

The plot twist isn't that Tom changed. It's that Claire might want him back.

THE PLOT TWIST is Book 6 in the Good Wife Games series. The man she left became the man she wants. And they're going to do it differently this time.
