Lachlan Harriot's wife Susie has been convicted of the murder of serial killer Andrew Gow, a prisoner in her care. He is convinced that his wife, a respected forensic psychiatrist, is innocent, but to prove that he must laboriously trawl through her case notes, her interviews with Gow and his new wife Donna, and the press cuttings from the trial. His search soon raises more questions than it answers, including a discovery that involves violence, sexual obsession, lust and ultimate betrayal. 2002.
