After He's Gone - by Katherine Bolger Hyde (Paperback)

About the Book

Charles was brilliant, charming, and handsome. We got married after a whirlwind romance. Now Charles has gone. Well, he's dead. I found his body in our living room, but I can't remember what happened before he died. I've tried, but I've been having blackouts for months. The police think I killed him, but I didn't . . . did I?

Book Synopsis

I know my husband is dead. I just don't know whether I killed him . . .

Charles and I were law students when I fell for him. He was handsome, charming, sure of himself - and he deigned to look at me. We had a dream-come-true courtship, wedding, and honeymoon, all orchestrated and paid for by his wealthy parents. Then he brought me home . . . And I woke up.

Nineteen months and a baby later, I'm standing in our pristine living room, looking at Charles lying in a pool of blood. I don't remember how I got here. The police are bound to think I killed him. But I didn't . . . did I?
