Northerner Frank Sinclair marries into a rich, snobby Southern family that resents him...then he goes off to fight in the Korean War. He's back on American shores when he learns that his wife, Dolly, has killed herself. He's released a year later, a haunted man, and returns to Huntsville, convinced that his wife was murdered. His quest to prove it stirs up buried secrets and simmering hatred.
An ambitious Southern Gothic and psychological thriller. Reminds me of Jim Thompson story....if written by William Faulkner. Ed McBride, Mostly Old Books Blog
Smooth, lyrical prose and the excellent characterization. This is an excellent novel. James Reasoner, Rough Edges Blog
