Publisher Description
Born into a fine old Charleston family, Hammond Cross is determined to be the city's next district attorney-without sacrificing his integrity. Prosecuting the sensational murder of real estate magnate Lute Pettijohn could be his ticket into the office. Yet while Hammond anticipates his success, someone near him is plotting his downfall-- Steffi Mundell, colleague, ex-lover, and rival for the DA's office--Rory Smilow, the homicide detective without equal and Hammond's avowed enemy--the wily and beautiful Davee Pettijohn, Lute's widow and Hammond's lifelong friend, who's too honest to mourn the husband she despised--and Hammond's prime suspect, the mysterious woman who shares the secret that would be fatal to Hammond's ambitions. For the first time in his career, he's bending the rules in favor of the suspect. All clues point to her guilt. Yet she holds in reserve the perfect alibi-Hammond Cross.

"This is the first book that I have read by Sandra Brown - and I love her! This book was full to the brim twists, turns, roadblocks and red herrings - the story that keeps me completely engaged! Her detail of places and people is incredible and her settings provide the backdrop for conflict and murder! Finally, she understands human failings and wraps her story around them - all of her characters have some kind of flaw. While the book is a longer read, it's definitely worth it! I already have two more of her books on my nightstand and I can't wait to read them!"

The Alibi Listener Reviews

" This one caught me off guard. I kept reading because I couldn't figure out exactly who the culprit was. Then, when I found out who it was, I was truly surprised that I hadn't realized it all along! "

" To me "The Alibi" started out slow and was a little hard to follow at first. Since I listened to the audio book, I don't know if it was the narrator's voice or the actual story that made me have that thought. However, as the book progressed the story got really intriguing. Lots of mystery, thrills, and little romance, but good romance. This is not my favorite Sandra Brown, but it's up there at the top. "

" Not a fan of how vulgar Sandra can be, but very good plot! "

" Slow to get going but enjoyed it "
— Susan, 1/24/2014 -
" This was my first large print book - got to admit not searching for glasses was a great pleasure, but the number of extra pages needed to accommodate large print made a heavy book - so, I may have to go back to small print and 150 reading glasses:) The book was entertaining. "

" This was the hardest of Sandra Brown's books for me to get into. Didn't like any of the main characters. I did something I haven't done since I was a kid - looked at the end and saw that it ended well. Tried to re-read it, but just couldn't get into it, so I'm done with it. "

" Outstanding storyline and non-stop suspense made this a wonderful read! I, for the most part, consider myself a pretty good sleuth but I have to give props to Sandra Brown for keeping me guessing till the end. I do believe that I have found myself yet another favorite author! "
— Cheryl, 5/7/2012 -
" This book read like one of my Mystery Party scripts-- everyone had opportunity, motive, and desire to be the killer. But who pulled the trigger??? Totally enjoyable book with some great characters I'd like to see reappear. "

" This book seemed to take a while to grab my attention. I almost gave up on it but come the middle, I was glad I didnt. From the middle to end it was hard to put down. "

" Yet another enjoyable reread, and I suspect I'll be rereading much of my Sandra Brown collection over the next couple of weeks. I've been in something of a reading slump over the summer, and her books never fail to please me and bring me back into my reading groove. "

" The only other book I've read by Sandra Brown was RAINWATER. It was wonderful, but it stated that it was a departure from her regular genre.<br/><br/>THE ALIBI is a fantastic mystery that had me guessing right until the end. I'll be reading more of her books in the future! "
— Sally, 2/21/2011 -
" This is one of the best Sandra Brown books I've read. Since there's almost 2,000 reviews already, I don't feel the need to elaborate. "

" One of many authors I enjoy reading. "
— Laurie, 2/2/2011 -
" Unbelieveably boring, predictable with dull characters who I find hard to believe talk like they do. "I wish you no umbrage" Jeesh. This didn't even make a good beach read [I live in Florida so can read beach reads all year long]. Definately skip this one "
— Jean, 1/28/2011 -
" Damn Good.... Hammond Cross a very powerful and intense character. Dr. Alex Ladd, his equally subtle and yet strong mystery woman. Do not miss the story of this amazing story of a man torn between his duty and protecting the woman he loves. "
