Richard North Patterson

Richie is dead, a badly faked suicide. So who killed him? He was suing his wife Terri for custody of their daughter Elena, he was suing Terri's new lover Chris and Chris's son Carlo but were his accusations of sexual abuse founded or just a ploy to get Terri back? When Chris is indicted for Richie's murder, Chris refuses to testify in his own defence, who is he protecting?
