Adam Ross' debut novel Mr. Peanut
David Pepin is endlessly devoted to his wife of thirteen years, Alice. Despite their constant relationship ups and downs and Alice's obsession with eating and then losing weight, David has done almost everything imaginable to ensure her happiness. When Alice is found dead after ingesting peanuts which she is publicly allergic to, David becomes the prime suspect in this apparent homicide. The detectives assigned to David's case have their own history with marital problems and as both the "crime" and story unravel, the line between reality and fantasy begins to blur dramatically.
Mr. Peanut
Adam Ross is extremely creative and has developed strong characters that are witty and hilarious. There are many "shock value"-worthy statements made by David Pepin and the two detectives that really make their personalities vibrant, intimate and real. Mr. Peanut
I'm eager to keep tabs on Adam Ross in the future, and am looking forward to his next novel! Fans of Mr. Peanut
