Scandal, power, friendship in elite suburban chaos.
If you reveled in the cutthroat fashion world of "The Devil Wears Prada," then reconnecting with Emily Charlton in "The Wives" might feel like meeting up with an old friend in a new battleground—the suburbs. With Weisberger's sharp wit, this dive into the polished yet tumultuous lives of the rich and famous promises a similarly indulgent mix of gossip, scandal, and redemption. Perfect for a dose of high-society drama with a side of heartfelt companionship.
