The Piggy Bank Murder

About the Book

Major Rome of the Connecticut State Police is convinced the mother-in-law is the murderer, in spite of other suspects, including the husband who had a secret lover, and a 19-year-old neighbor. Rome admitted under oath that he used subterfuge, deception and his Bag of tricks, in an attempt to get at the truth.

When you read the trial dialog that is from actual court transcripts, you'll get the feeling you re actually in the jury box. Even after you finish the novel and know who the murder is, you never the less will scratch you head and question the findings?
