Lamb to the slaughter

I like the fact that this short story kept certain details up to the imagination.  The best part of this piece for me was when the writer just cut the whole reason for the talk up to the reader.  He could of cheated on her, or he could of just fell out of love with her.  The only thing i disliked about it was how short it was i actually enjoyed following the plot it kept me interested up till the end when she fed the weapon of choice to the very detectives investigating the murder.  I can appreciate how ironic the story is, its very intelligent.  The way she knew to create an alibi before she could mourn was very intriguing.
