Eileen Kennedy’s Reviews > The Wharton Plot > Status Update

Edith Wharton is unhappy in her marriage, frustrated with her lover, and critical of almost everyone she meets. She is trapped. When a fellow author is murdered in broad daylight, she becomes obsessed with the motive. Happy to distract from her own troubles, she investigates the dead man’s personal life. Being stalked herself, she digs deeper. Mariah Fredericks’ depiction of this famous woman is spot on. I am a fan.
