The only fly in the perfumed ointment of Bonnie Wheeler's picture-perfect life is her husband's ex-wife, Joan, and someone close to her has just swatted the fly with a .38 revolver. Because Bonnie found the body and had a peculiar relationship to the deceased, the police start their search for a murderer with her. Terrified, she tells the police that Joan called her to warn her that her life was in danger and to set up a meeting. Now Joan's death sets in motion events that lead Bonnie to question everyone and everything around her. Why couldn't her husband be found when he was supposed to be at work? Why is her estranged brother's name in Joan's address book? Why was a scrapbook detailing Bonnie's life found in Joan's bedroom? Why don't Joan's children react normally to their mother's death? As Bonnie searches for answers, mysterious accidents occur that threaten her and her daughter's lives as a sociopathic murderer moves in for the kill. Fielding provides an intricately plotted thriller, with the possible killer changing from page to page as Bonnie ties the myriad clues together to form a complex whole. A definite must for Fielding fans and a new find for fans of Mary Higgins Clark. Melanie Duncan
