In The Script, authors Elizabeth Landers and Vicky Mainzer unveil the unmistakable pattern many men follow when they cheat. Based on dozens of interviews and real-life accounts, they demonstrate how denial, diversion, and deceptive tactics unfold in a precise order—and why 35% of married men ultimately stray.
Through clear examples, the book reveals common signs and carefully crafted excuses:
- Frequent late nights at work or sudden travel plans
- Shifting blame onto a partner’s mental health
- Unexplained secrecy around phone or online activity
- Abrupt emotional distancing and new-found privacy
Each chapter breaks down a stage of deception, offering insight into the motivations and methods behind infidelity. By recognizing these predictable behaviors, readers can ask critical questions before it’s too late.
With tough-love honesty and practical empathy, The Script equips you with the evidence and support needed to navigate relationship challenges and protect your emotional wellbeing.
Ideal for women seeking clarity and confidence, The Script offers both cautionary tales and empowering guidance to help maintain trust or confront deception head-on.
