Synopsis
A SHATTERING DEATH
Beautiful home, beautiful wife, beautiful life. To the casual observer, prosperous real estate executive Carl Rodman lives a perfectly ordered existence in the chic seaside town of Hollowsport. But scratch the surface and the pain of his young son's tragic hit-and-run death two years before comes rushing out. And someone out there would like to tear Rodman's mask away, to shatter the careful facade that holds his sanity in place. . . .
AN UNSPEAKABLE SECRET
The latest letter demanded $35,000. The phrase "child killer" was used more than once, not as a threat, more as a sick joke. Rodman knows the man from his past will never go away until he has sucked him dry, and destroys whatever is left of Rodman and his family. Rodman can't let that happen. The only way out is to kill the man to kill the memory.
A DESPERATE SOLUTION
So Carl Rodman commits the perfect murder . . . only to learn that another, more chilling murder has taken place closer to home at the same time. Now he's a suspect, and his only alibi is to confess to murder . . . and to expose the dark truth that he killed to keep buried forever. . . .
ALIBIS
Robert DiChiara has written an intricate thriller of white-knuckle intensity, a haunting novel filled with the mysteries within mysteries of the human heart--and with an ending that will blow you away.

From Publishers Weekly
Sixties freak turned real-estate executive Carl Rodman and his wife, Delia, have never fully recovered from the death of their son Eric. And notes from a former school chum and blackmailer, Sonny Vance, calling Carl a child killer aren't helping any. Rodman hopes that murdering Sonny will help him forget, but when he returns home after the murder to a swarm of police, he confesses to his guilt only to discover that the police are there to investigate a different murder?Delia's. Which means that Carl's only alibi for one murder is another. It's a potentially brilliant premise, but singularly unsympathetic characters mix with a confusing plot and poor narrative pacing to choke this debut thriller.
