A first-rate mystery writer.
–Los Angeles Times Book Review
First time in paperback!
Harry s daughter knows her milieu; better still, she knows how to portray it convincingly.
–The San Diego Union
Law professor Mac has unflagging passion for two things in his life: his wife Annabel and the majestic Potomac River. When Mac discovers a weed-shrouded body in the latter, the former gets edgy. Lovely Annabel, owner of a flourishing Georgetown art gallery, must not only endure her husband s obsession with another killing, but she must believe Mac when he says that a stunning female former student is one of the only people who can help him.
They discover that the corpse was once the confidante of a wealthy Washingtonian, which leads to the Scarlet Sin Society, a theatrical group that–perilously–reenacts historical murders. And soon, the only thing that matters more to Mac than solving this serpentine case is preventing Annabel s untimely death (.
Truman knows the forks in the nation s capital and how to pitchfork her readers into a web of murder and detection.
