True to it‘a name: She truly is the wife. 

I think the „revelation“ was quite obvious from the first few pages onwards, but then in the middle I felt like it was not fleshed out enough. The ending felt kind of rushed to me and not at all satisfying. The writing and the characters overall was very nice.
