Book Review: The Crime of Julian Wells by Thomas H. Cook

The Crime of Julian Wells by Thomas H. Cook is a
mystery and a novel of psychological suspense in which the layers of a
man’s life are peeled away to reveal a surprising secret (available
August 7, 2012).

 


When the body of famed true-crime writer Julian Wells is found in a
boat drifting on a Montauk pond, the question isn’t how he died, but

the reason he took his own life.
