Armchair Fiction presents large, deluxe editions of classic mystery-crime novels. Author Lee Roberts spins a masterful tale of mystery and mayhem in “Once a Widow.” Her name was Karen, and although she still had the body of a woman half her age, the ravages of age were slowly becoming apparent in Karen’s face. It had become all too clear to her young husband, Richard…Karen was no longer young. Still, Richard Barry thought to himself, he might have stuck out their marriage—at least for a little while longer. That is, if he hadn’t met Rose Ann.
But he had met Rose Ann.
And that meeting had changed everything in his life—in all of their lives. Now Karen, whose knowing arms and lips and hands had once filled him with an overwhelming excitement, only filled him with disgust. The same feeling a child has from a worn out, broken toy that must be discarded for something new. Rose Ann, so desirable in her innocent, young loveliness, was that something new—and she was now the reason Karen had to die!
