Despre această carte electronică
In this “engrossing” novel from a Pulitzer Prize winner, a reporter investigates the recent death of woman believed murdered by her spouse years earlier (Publishers Weekly).
What was the nude, recently slain body of Kaithlin Jordan doing spoiling the pristine turquoise waters of Miami Beach — especially when the dead socialite’s convicted killer husband is sitting on Death Row for having murdered her . . . ten years ago! Reporter Britt Montero lives for this kind of story. But she may die for this one as well. Because each question raises many others — and every hard-won answer reveals secret passions and explosive truths that could doom an overly inquisitive journalist with a tendency to leap before she looks.
“An intelligent, thoroughly entertaining crime novel.” —Booklist
“The real fun of this action-packed series revolves around Britt herself, a realistic character with insatiable curiosity and a mother, a landlady, pets, lovers, and her numerous Miami News sidekicks. . . . Highly recommended.” —Library Journal
Praise for Edna Buchanan:
“A supremely expert yarnspinner.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review
“Buchanan tells great stories—hot, horrible, homicidal stories.” —New York Times Book Review
“Few writers can touch Buchanan.” —Chicago Tribune
“I doubt if anyone else is doing it any better.” —Washington Post Book World
“If you like crime, you’ll love Buchanan.” —Tampa Tribune

Despre autor
Edna Buchanan knows firsthand that underneath Miami's glistening facade lies a city torn by violence and muddied by corruption, where every moment a crime is waiting to happen. As a Pulitzer Prize-winning crime reporter, Buchanan has exposed the seamier sides of this sun-drenched paradise, then used her more than twenty years of experience to create a dynamic and deadly Miami that vividly comes alive in each of her novels. Especially when the city is seen through the fiercely intense eyes of a tough newspaperwoman named Britt Montero. The author of eleven books, Buchanan has spent time behind bars -- with two serial killers. She lives in Miami, Florida.
