Dark humour, dirty deeds, marriages and murder . . . it’s the fantastically twisty first novel you won’t be able to put down.

Pam and her friends Nancy and Shalisa have had enough. Enough of scraping by and enough of their bothersome husbands. Husbands who lost their life savings to a dodgy investment but also happen to have hefty life insurance policies.

Their new retirement plan? Why murder, of course.

But they don’t know that their husbands have a new retirement plan of their own.

And now someone is going to be killed . . . but who?

Three wives wanting a new life, three husbands in their way . . .

Sue Hincenbergs is a former television producer who has worked on multiple award-winning programs ranging from sitcoms to lifestyle. She oversaw the content on two national daily shows, including Canada’s longest running morning show before turning her talents to live music specials.

And then she started writing.

Her darkly humorous crime debut The Retirement Plan was acquired in major six-figure deals in the UK and US & Canada, before being snapped up by multiple foreign territories for translation rights. The novel will be published across the world in summer 2025.

Sue lives in Toronto with her (very much alive) husband, her scruffy, middle-aged rescue dog Kramer, and the rooms full of the stuff her three sons left behind when they moved out. The porch light is always on in case one comes by for a visit.
