 Secrets of Eden; Chris Bohjalian

 Shaye Areheart Books - Pub. Date - 2/2/2010


(p. 15)...... "Vermont rarely has more than ten or fifteen homicides any given year, and while the majority of them begin with domestic disputes, murder-suicides are blessedly uncommon: Usually a husband or ex-husband, boyfriend or ex-boyfriend, merely shoots or strangles the poor woman with whom he might have built a life and then goes to prison for the majority of what remains of his own."

    I am looking forward to this book. My favorite book of his that I've read is Skeletons at the Feast.

    I hope it's okay that I posted an award for you on my blog!
