From the Academy-Award-winning director of 12 Years A Slave, Steve McQueen, and co-writer and bestselling author of Gone Girl, Gillian Flynn, comes a blistering, modern-day thriller set against the backdrop of crime, passion, and corruption. Set in contemporary Chicago, amid a time of turmoil, Widows is the story of four women with nothing in common except a debt left behind by their dead husbands' criminal activities who take their fate into their own hands and conspire to forge a future on their own terms.
