About this episode
Her Prodigal Husband by Becky Masterman is a thriller published in 2025.
The story centers around Liesl, a woman whose husband, Sam, left her ten years prior [3]. When Sam returns, he appears to be a changed man and is apologetic for his past behavior. Liesl takes him back, but her sister, Alice, who is an author, is suspicious of Sam's motives.
Alice's suspicions are further aroused when she witnesses strange events happening around Sam, including the appearance of a mysterious woman and a near hit-and-run incident involving Liesl . As Alice digs deeper, she becomes convinced that Sam is involved in something dangerous, and she seeks the help of a private investigator, Brigid Quinn, to uncover the truth.
However, Liesl has secrets of her own, and as the investigation progresses, Alice is forced to confront the possibility that her sister may not be as innocent as she seems [9]. The story explores the complexities of family relationships and the lengths people will go to protect those they love, even if it means sacrificing their own happiness or safety .
