The Cinderella Coyotes of State University are in the Final Four, poised to win the NCAA National Championship in basketball—the culmination of March Madness. For Marla Conners, she's proud of her husband Neal, and his achievement of coaching a collegiate team to the pinnacle of his career and the ultimate victory for his team. Yet, Marla's idyllic life is about to be viciously attacked and torn apart by a different madness—her husband's reputation ruined, a university disgraced, and she finds herself on trial accused of first-degree murder.
The Coach’s Wife is rife with spine-tingling suspense, conspiracy, deceit, and murder, sizzling and seductive passion, right down to the last second buzzer-beating heroics. This is also a candid and vivid behind-the-scenes portrait of Division One college basketball, university politics, money and corruption, and all the lives that are blessed and ruined by it all.
A lot going on in this book. I’m not sure whether to call the
genre, crime, suspense, drama, etc. Even though I’ve listed a lot of elements,
there wasn’t one thing confusing in this book. It’s intense. If you know
basketball, you’ll know that part is real drama anyway:)
I love basketball so I loved reading the hype and what I’ll
call familiar scenery. It was almost as if the Final Four was going on during
the whole book. But there’s a Peyton Place going on right around the basketball
so don’t think there isn’t something here for everyone. I enjoyed the read.
