The unexpected suicide of an apparently happy family man; a woman held captive for three years in a forgotten underground bunker; a middle aged clergyman, at a crisis point in his life and drawn into an uncomfortable relationship with a teenaged girl ...against the backcloth of these interwoven tales comes the story of two men who meet by accident. Piet Steyn and Granville St Clair have nothing in common but both happen to be out walking at dawn on a country village lane where they accidentally and dramatically become joint witnesses of a domestic tragedy. There is a certain aspect of the incident that they feel compelled to keep hidden - a decision that will have disastrous repercussions for them both. As the secrets of their private lives begin to peel away, they find themselves unwillingly bound together in a dark conspiracy that threatens to destroy them. The Good Wife's Castle is a tense thriller that explores a conflict of human evil and goodness, of murder, despair, obsession and twisted spirituality, which co-exist beneath the veneer of seemingly respectable people in a quiet, rural community.
