Death takes a wife

the long version

Would you marry the man you love if he were suspected of shooting his first wife? That was Helen Wayland's problem. Blanche French had died of a gunshot wound, and a jury could not decide if it was accident, suicide or murder. Helen made her choice, but two years later a second woman died in mysterious circumstances, and once again Paul French's name was involved. It was thanks to Arthur Crook, that intrepid legal champion of lost causes, that the astonishing truth about both deaths was finally established and innocence vindicated.
