ANDREW'S WIFE

Andrew Pailles at the age of fifty-five had a solid fortune, a compelling virility and a twenty-four year old second wife, Barbara. His unwanted adopted son Claude was a left over from his first marriage and close to Barbara's age. When a heart attack crippled Andrew, the setting for murder was almost perfect. Each of these characters narrates a third of the book which builds swiftly to a three-way murder.
