What is A Reliable Wife (Thorndike Press Large Print Core) about?

<p>He placed a notice in a Chicago paper, an advertisement for a reliable wife. She responded, saying that she was a simple, honest woman. She was, of course, anything but honest, and the only simple thing about her was her single-minded determination to marry this man and then kill him, slowly and carefully, leaving her a wealthy widow, able to take care of the one she truly loved.<p>What Catherine Land did not realize was that the enigmatic and lonely Ralph Truitt had a plan of his own. And what neither anticipated was that they would fall so completely in love. <p>Filled with unforgettable characters, and shimmering with color and atmosphere, <i>A Reliable Wife</i> is an enthralling tale of love and madness, of longing and murder. <p></p><h3>The Barnes & Noble Review</h3><p>Nothing is what it seems in the pages of <em>A Reliable Wife, </em> the debut novel by adman and memoirist Robert Goolrick. What starts as a brooding tale of trickery and betrayal is, in fact, a meditation on loneliness. It has roots that reach far beyond the frigid Wisconsin landscape where the tale is set, and which suck their sustenance from the personal torment of Goolrick's own southern-gothic past. <br>
