Olivier
Suzanne is Olivier’s wife. She attends the weekly gatherings at the Raquin household with her husband, though she doesn’t talk much when she’s around others. Thérèse finds her unintelligent and boring, but she ends up befriending her after killing Camille, apparently taking a small amount of comfort in spending time with Suzanne so she doesn’t have to be alone during the daytime.
