The Hunting Wives ends with Sophie deciding to run over Margo’s brother Kyle (Michael Aaron Milligan) after he threatens her. In doing so, Sophie — who has been drinking and driving — chooses to repeat the same crime that has haunted her for the past two years when she killed another motorist while intoxicated.

Netflix's 'The Hunting Wives' made a lot of changes from May Cobb's book — especially when it came to the ending

But when a young high school girl, Abby (Madison Wolfe), who was dating Jill’s son Brad (George Ferrier), turns up dead, Sophie’s gun is identified as the murder weapon and she becomes the prime suspect. Her past transgressions are unraveled, as are the many secrets of the wives in town, who are all driven by jealousy, lust, and revenge.
