Suzy Perry gives off a sophisticated charm that may trigger some reflexive defense, but her exuberance is nothing short of perfection, excluding the fact that she has a slight limp. After two marriages and counting, Suzy develops the habit of poisoning and killing off her husbands, acquiring their properties and assets in the process. Feeding them a poison that produces an unsuspecting heart attack, Suzy lives in the luxury acquired from her late husband. However, things go awry when she picks up a third husband, Dean Perry, whose son, Alex Perry, smells a bad odor about her not making efforts to reveal her past. Suzy, who in the past had a family and a daughter, cut off her ties with them for some inexplicable reasons. However, Alex's curiosity gets the better of him, and he instinctively hires a private detective to look into Suzy's past. After learning one or two things, Alex finds contact with Suzy's children and stepchildren, and after a few dives into unsteady waters, graves are dug out and bodies are exhumed to confirm suspicions. After being confronted about her past, Suzy goes on the run to start life anew with a new name in a different state in a different region, the third time she's done so. Here's what to look out for: will the steady hands of the law catch up with her before she's able to fool and eventually kill another innocent man, or will she nick another unsuspecting rich spinster and kill him after she gets bored, acquiring all his assets in the process? Will Alex find the truth about Suzy's murders and eventually bring her to justice, or will she walk away as free as a prisoner on his release day? Please take a look at this invigorating novel and find the answers.
 
Undetected by Jeffrey Marshall is a book that magnificently enchanted me. Suzy's deceit required numerous skills and experience, and I must say that she knew how to throw the dice in her favor. She came off as beautiful and composed, and she had so many other virtues that made men think the world of her. Dean Perry was lost in her good graces, but he couldn't help but be grateful that he didn't get caught in her poisonous web. This book portrays a woman with a sickening conviction, and I could not help but wonder what her real motive was. She seemed to know a lot, but occasionally the cards turned out badly for her. This novel stimulated my mind in unfathomable ways, and as I write this review, I'm still reeling from the experience of reading this book. It was so enchanting, mind-blowing, fascinating, and exciting. I'll have to give it to the author for his brilliant work. The book was fast-paced, and this is a factor that checks it off as a favorite on my bookshelf. I enjoyed reading this novel, and I doubt you wouldn't feel the same.
 
Furthermore, I must say that I have no negative reports on this novel. The reading experience is one that I'll love to repeat a couple of times, and I am delighted to share my approval of this book with you. The book is a blockbuster, and I'm sure you'll agree with me on this after taking a thorough look at it. 
 
There were only a few errors present in this insightful read, and this made the reading process much easier for me. Therefore, I'll have to say that it was professionally edited. All said and done, I attach to this book the perfect rating of 5 out of 5 stars, as I believe this is what suits it best. My opinion of this book is very high, and I must state explicitly that I hope you check it out.

I recommend this book to readers with a profound love for mysteries, murders, crime, and the like. However, if you're looking for an interesting read to stimulate your mind, I'll advise you to pick this book up. You'll never regret doing so.

People who seem to know a lot somehow gets bad outcomes. This played out with the female character in this story.

Alex should bring his Father's death to justice. Expose Suzy so she won't be able to marry and kill another innocent man.

This sounds like a great read and is in my preferred genre. Suzy has a problem. I don’t pretend to know what it is, but no one in their right mind kills for so little reason. Thank for a great review.

A "black widow" who might have got more than she bargained for in her latest marriage, and that might mark her demise. That's an intriguing idea for a crime thriller and I'm curious about its development. Thank you for your great review!
Ciao :)

Of course it wouldn't, and that's when the story gets even trickier. I'll never forget the thrill I got from reading this novel. Thanks for stopping by to comment. Have a great day.
