Who to Believe - Edwin Hill Interview
Edwin HillShow NotesToday we talk with Edwin Hill about his book Who To Believe. It will release today from KensingtonBooks.Monreith, Massachusetts, was once a small community of whalers and farmers. These days it’s a well-to-dotown filled with commuters drawn to its rugged coastline and country roads. A peaceful, predictable place—until popular restaurateur Laurel Thibodeau is found brutally murdered in her own home. Suspicion naturallyfalls on Laurel’s husband, Simon, who had gambling debts that only her life insurance policy could fix. Butthere are other rumors too . . .Among the group of six friends gathered for Alice Stone’s fortieth birthday, theories abound concerningLaurel’s death. Max Barbosa, police chief, has heard plenty of them, as has his longtime friend, Unitarianminister Georgia Fitzhugh. Local psychiatrist Farley Drake is privy to even more, gleaning snippets of gossipand information from his patients while closely guarding his own past.But maybe everyone in Monreith has something to hide. Because before this late-summer evening has cometo a close, one of these six will be dead. And as jealousy, revenge, adultery, and greed converge, thequestion becomes not who among these friends might be capable of such a thing, but—who isn’t?
