Description: In "The Color of Murder" by Julian Symons we follow the protagonist John Wilkins, an inconspicuous clerk in a London department store. He leads a quiet and unassuming life until he meets an attractive young woman named Sheila. Wilkins develops an obsessive fascination with her and begins spending his time with her, even though he is already married. When his wife suspects that he is having an affair, the situation escalates. Wilkins suffers from sudden blackouts and outbursts of violence. Eventually he is accused of committing murder. But Wilkins can't remember the crime. The book is both a thrilling crime thriller and a psychological study of obsession and madness. The plot revolves around the question of whether Wilkins is actually the perpetrator or just the victim of his.
