Description
In this Edgar Award finalist and "slow-burning, intricate" thriller, a professor falls for his wife all over again . . . while he stands trial for her murder (Publishers Weekly, starred review).Samuel Madison always wondered what Sandrine saw in him. He was a meek, stuffy doctoral student while she was a beautiful bohemian with limitless talent and imagination. On the surface their marriage seemed jobs at the same small liberal arts college, a precocious young daughter, and a home filled with art and literature. But then one night Sandrine is found dead from an overdose--and Samuel is accused of poisoning her.
As secrets about their tumultuous marriage come to light in the courtroom, Samuel must face a town and media convinced of his guilt, a daughter whose faith in her father has been shaken to its core, and astonishing revelations about his wife, who never ceased being a mystery to him.
Sandrine's Case is a "gripping, moving, and elegiac" novel about the evil that can lurk within the heart of a seemingly ordinary man (Michael Connelly).
"Cook plays with and against the conventions of the noir mystery to craft a novel deeper and richer than the genre would seem to allow." --The Columbus Dispatch
