April Storm - A Novel

A seemingly perfect suburban housewife is being pursued by a private detective . . . and hunted by a murderer in this riveting, much-anticipated posthumous novel from the beloved author of Roses and Dragonfly. Kathryn Walker enjoys an enviable life. Her husband is an accomplished doctor, her two children are bright and successful, and she devotes herself to charity work that uplifts her suburban Colorado community. Settling into a new year, her life couldn''t be better. . . Until April. For Kathryn, April has always rained trouble--but this time may be even stormier than the fraught past she''s trying to overcome. Already distraught over the infant daughter who died in this same cursed month many years ago, Kathryn isn''t ready to consider the overwhelming evidence that someone may be trying to take her husband--and her life. Featuring the appealing characters and addictive storytelling that have been beloved hallmarks of Leila Meacham''s work since her breakout debut Roses, April Storm is a page-turning suspense that caps a remarkable literary career.
