The Suspect

When a marriage headed for divorce ends in homicide‚ no alibi can clear the surviving spouse — but the right attorney just might. After a weekend at his cabin on Echo Lake‚ Stuart Gorman returns home to find his wife Caryn floating dead in their hot tub. Homicide inspector Devin Juhle is called to the scene and soon learns that Gorman had recently asked for a divorce and that the couple had a $3 million insurance policy. A gambling man would bet that Stuart Gorman didn't stand a chance. But then a betting man might not have tangled with Dismas Hardy's law firm — and in particular‚ with Gina Roake.
