Best-selling author Jan Burke-a winner of the Edgar, Macavity, and Agatha awards-presents an "intelligent tale of danger and vengeance" (Publishers Weekly). In Dear Irene, intrepid investigative reporter Irene Kelly begins receiving letters from a psychotic pen pal. It seems someone is bent on creating a real life Greek tragedy-and in this play, everyone is supposed to die.
