After All These Years

By: Susan Isaacs

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“We’re back on affluent suburban Long Island—Isaacs country—and she doesn’t miss a beat or a bet when describing its inhabitants.” —New York Times Book Review

Written with her trademark style, effervescent charm, and snappy wit, New York Times bestselling author Susan Isaacs delivers a delicious and insightful look at love and marriage—and homicide.

The day after her lavish wedding anniversary bash, Rosie Meyers gets a big surprise: Her nouveau riche husband, Richie, is leaving her for a sultry, sophisticated, size-six MBA. So, when he's found murdered in their exquisitely appointed kitchen, no one is surprised to find Rosie's prints all over the weapon.

The suburban English teacher is the prime suspect—the police's only suspect. And she knows she'll spend the rest of her life in the prison library unless she can unmask the real killer. Going into Manhattan on the lam, Rosie learns more about Richie than she ever wanted to know. And more about herself than she ever dreamed possible.

After All These Years is an irresistible mystery, replete with Isaac’s razor-sharp wit, splendidly drawn characters, and a brave, irreverent heroine readers will love.

Great Story!

Hard to put down. The only thing I didn’t care for was the occasional music between chapters but otherwise the audio was very good.

A Classic!

I read this book in.... 1993. Susan Isaacs is such a good writer that I remembered a lot of the details of the story. Christine Baranski's narration was excellent! I like her anyway, but she really hit this one out of the park. I cannot listen to a poorly narrated book, and was so happy to listen to this book.

The only thing I really didn't care for was the sudden music between the chapters. But don't let that dissuade you from listening to this book! It still holds up 30 years later.

Abridged version

This version took out so much of the color and detail that makes Susan Isaac’s books so compelling

Exactly like TV hallmark movie. Exactly.

I expected a different or more detailed story than the movie. This book is almost word for word as the movie apart from one or two sex scenes and a more jeswish angle. I don't like the narrator.
