Sobre aquest llibre
A San Francisco couple sorts through scandals to find a killer in this classic mystery starring “one of the more interesting married teams of detectives” (Thrilling Detective).
Pat and Jean Abbott’s new San Francisco neighbors give new meaning to the term dysfunctional family. And now, amid the mess of exes, stepchildren, rivalries, and resentments, there’s been a tragic death—little Lisa, a vulnerable ten-year-old, has fatally overdosed on cough medicine.
When one of the grown daughters of the patriarch, Dr. Alby—who prescribed the narcotic himself—asks private investigator Pat to look into the suspicious circumstances, he and Jean will find that everyone from a heartless beauty to a handsome womanizer may be behind this crime, and that they themselves are in danger of being caught up in a deadly family drama . . .
Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries
“Lively and exciting.” —The New York Times
“Ample suspense.” —Saturday Review
“Nasty characters and clues pointing off in all directions—quite good.” —The Miami News
