author:  Gail Bowen

The story culminates in a surprising, explosive ending.  <i>Kitchener-Waterloo Record</i><br /><br />The book does what better crime fiction always does  bring the evil that we would rather not look at up close to our own world. <br /> ReviewingTheEvidence.com<br /><br />A page-turning and enjoyable read. <br /> <i>Quill &amp; Quire</i><br /><br /><br /><i>From the Hardcover edition.</i>
