If I'd Killed Him When I Met Him by Sharyn Mccrumb

When forensic anthropologist Elizabeth MacPherson becomes the official P.I. for her brother Bill's fledgling Virginia law firm, she quickly takes on two complex cases.  Eleanor Royden, a perfect lawyer's wife for twenty years, has shot her ex-husband and his wife in cold blood. And Donna Jean Morgan is implicated in the death of her Bible-thumping bigamist husband.

Bill's feminist firebrand partner, A. P. Hill, does her damnedest for Eleanor, an abused wife in denial, and Bill gallantly defends Donna Jean. Meanwhile, Elizabeth's forensic expertise, including her special knowledge of poisons, gives her the most challenging case of her career. . . .

Sharyn McCrumb is a New York Times bestselling author noted for her Appalachian Ballad novels such as The Ballad of Frankie Silver, She Walks These Hills, and The Ballad of Tom Dooley. The East Tennessee Historical Society's Wilma Dykeman Prize for Literature and the Audie Award for Outstanding Recorded Book went to Ghost Riders.
