One
Fell Swoop
By turns hilarious and poignant, this daring, debut novel
begins with the violent end of a marriage. A local wife-and-mother
has killed her husband after finding him in the midst of
an affair. Each chapter, written from a different community
member's point of view, shows the ripple effect of that
dramatic event and how it has affected the townspeople differently--some
directly and others less so, but all meaningfully and irrevocably.
