Samuel Madison always wondered what Sandrine saw in him, he a meek, stuffy doctorate student and she a brilliant, beautiful bohemian with limitless talent and imagination. Yet on the surface their marriage seemed perfectly tranquil: jobs at a small liberal arts college, a precocious young daughter, a home filled with art and literature, and trips to some of the world’s most beautiful places. Then one night Sandrine is found dead in their bed from a deadly overdose of pain medication and alcohol, and Samuel is accused of poisoning her.

As the truth of their turbulent marriage comes to light, Samuel must face a town convinced of his guilt, a daughter whose faith in her father has been shaken to it's core, and the truth about his brilliant wife whose shattering secrets could set him free - or condemn him to death.

Critic reviews

"Part of the thrill of reading this unusual mystery is that we're confined to Samuel's head, and he's not saying if he did indeed murder his wife. Another fine effort from the always insightful Cook." ( Booklist)

I really enjoyed this book. The story and plot were great, but the point of view and story telling was even better.

This started out very well and had my attention. Then, it dragged through the second half and seemed way longer than it needed to be. The ending was not fulfilling.

fizzled out

The story was a bit repetitive. The voice of Alexandria was so irritating, whiney and nasal that it became difficult to listen.

A bit schmaltsie. The end was a washout. I ended up liking a "sociopath"best of the lot.

End up disliking the nicest person!

Would you consider the audio edition of Sandrine's Case to be better than the print version?

I tried to read the print version several times but couldn't get into it. I decided to try it out on audio and I'm so glad I did! I was able to get wrapped up in this great book about love, loss, betrayal, and heart break. Really beautiful and heartfelt.
