A fast-paced, wintry debut novel finds Nora questioning why her seemingly-happy, police officer husband has committed suicide. Nora will not accept his suicide, even after his mother and co-workers ask her to let it be. As Nora begins to dig deeper into the past of her small, upstate New York town, she uncovers secrets about the town and her husband’s childhood. This suspenseful first effort will appeal to readers who enjoy plot-driven thrillers. Milchman’s story not only explores the lasting effects of suicide, but also details the scrutiny an outsider faces in a small town. Fans of Sandra Brown, Catherine Coulter, Lisa Gardiner, and Iris Johansen will enjoy this new author’s compelling mystery. Written by PGH
