"Excellent character drawing" and "a thrilling climax" propel a suspenseful mystery from the author of An Afternoon to Kill (The New York Times).
Linda Campion, a mother to four children, is looking forward to her husband returning from the war. Yet immediately after his return, Linda's body is found at the bottom of the stairs at the Hawkswood Estate. Everyone's first instinctβshe fell. But when the cause of death is found to be something much more sinister, everyone becomes a suspect.
With no known enemies, and a house full of people who adore her, the police are clueless as to who might be the killer. As mysteries unravel and skeletons come out of the closetβincluding a cheating husband, a jealous mistress, and a man whose affections remain unreturnedβthe chilling truth is slowly revealed . . .
