Book description
Roe Teagarden's life finally seems to have settled into a comfortable
pattern. Her marriage to Martin is going well, she's back at work at the
Lawrenceton library - and she hasn't found a dead body in quite a while.
But then one afternoon her handyman goes crazy in her side yard and Roe
suspects this is a sign of bad things to come.
She's soon proved right as Martin's niece, Regina, shows up with a baby
that nobody knew she had. Then she disappears, leaving behind the child
- and a murdered husband. To find her, Roe and Martin retrace her steps
from sunny Georgia back to snowy Ohio, where they find a nest of dark
family secrets. Secrets which put them in peril... Charlaine Harris is
the author of several NEW YORK TIMES bestselling series. She is married,
with children, and lives in Arkansas.
