Greetings all,

I wonder if anyone can identify the following book:

A New York City attorney murders his wife's lover, a photographer. To hide
the crime he borrows a boat and pretends to blow himself up, faking his own
death. He then goes to New Mexico and assumes the identity of the murdered
lover as a photographer. He is almost discovered when his wife goes to New
Mexico to view an exhibit of his photographs.

Thanks for your help,

The Big Picture by Douglas Kennedy is the book about the man who murders
the wife's lover and assumes his identity as photographer.

This sounds like "The Big Picture" by Douglas Kennedy, except that he goes
to Montana (as I remember). A good book in the murder/thriller genre -
about two years old.
