The Good Life by Marian Thurm FIC Thu

I thought this was a good book. I liked the way Thurm built up the suspense by interspersing the thoughts and actions of the husband Roger with the story of how Roger and Stacy met, fell in love, married and had two children.  Stacy worked as a social worker.  One day she was at her neighborhood muffin shop when she dropped her purse and everything spilled out.  A well-dressed older man helped her to pick things up while glancing at her driver's license.  He notices that they share the same birthday. They had both bought the same kind of muffin and sweet tea.  It must be fate.  He is wearing a $15,000 watch.  They definitely come from different worlds.  Yet it worked.

Sounds like a happy book.  But it starts out with Roger buying a gun.  And that is all I'm going to say!
