A nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat investigation into the mysterious disappearance of Jennifer Dulos and the aftershocks that rattled a wealthy suburb.

Rich Cohen's Murder in the Dollhouse is the chilling story of Jennifer Dulos, a beautiful, rich suburban mother who dropped her kids off at the New Canaan Country School one morning and then vanished. Her body has never been found.

Jennifer was in the midst of an ugly divorce--one of the most contentious in Connecticut state history. The Duloses, a glamorous, highly connected pair, met at Brown University, had five children, and led what appeared to be a charmed life.

He killed himself on the day he was supposed to appear in court; she was tried and convicted of conspiracy to commit murder.

A gripping true story of status, wealth, love, and hate, Murder in the Dollhouse peers beneath the sparkling veneer of propriety that surrounded the Duloses to uncover the origins and motivations of a crime that has become a national obsession.
