Mystery Woman Sleuth | Thriller
The most praised thriller writer to burst onto the scene in
years returns with a brilliant new story of suicide, murder,
violence, and greed. Responding to a late night-call, Paddy
Meehan arrives at an elegant villa, where a calm blonde with
blood running from her mouth answers the door. She has
already convinced the police to leave and soon Paddy
realizes how--she slips 50 bucks into Paddy's hands and begs
her to keep the incident, whatever it is, out of the press.
The next morning Paddy sees the lead news story: The blonde
woman has been murdered, and far from the spoiled trophy
wife Paddy assumed her to be, the victim turns out to be a
prosecution lawyer with a social conscience. Bewildered why
the woman didn't take the chance to leave the house when she
could, Paddy begins to make connections no one else has
seen. When she witnesses the body of a suicide victim being
pulled from the river shortly afterward, Paddy suspects
links between the two deaths and follows her idea to its
shocking--and deadly--conclusion.
