The novel follows the emotional journey of a woman trapped in a marriage with a charming but narcissistic husband. At first, he seems perfect-confident, attentive, successful-but as time passes, his true nature emerges. He gaslights her, isolates her from friends and family, and constantly shifts blame to avoid accountability. Told from the wife's point of view, the story captures her growing confusion, self-doubt, and eventual awakening. Through therapy, secret journaling, or chance encounters, she begins to piece together the emotional abuse she's endured. The novel climaxes with her breaking free-either emotionally or physically-from his control, reclaiming her identity and starting to heal.
