Query: There have got to be better police/suspect stories out there

I picked up this book on a whim after reading a very positive review of it in a magazine. I think the writer of that review must have mixed this up with another book. This book was a huge disappointment. The story revolves around a woman who is a suspect in her late husband's murder. She and the detective (who is actually a suspended detective) get involved right off the bat. The character development was about nil. Somehow the reclusive lady (a recluse for reasons not fully explained) falls for the cop and is able to overcome whatever it is that made her wall herself off from the world. How she got from A to B I never did figure out. The suspense plot (insurance fraud, codes, what have you) could have been very interesting, but was also not well-developed. The whole time I read this book, I felt as if I was reading the Cliff's Notes for what could have been a great story. Unfortunately for this tortured reader, it never quite got there.
