Sarah Fortune, first encountered in "Shadows on the Mirror", is sent to Merton-on-Sea in Norfolk to sort out the inheritance problems of the small town's premier family. But she discovers much more than just an ambiguously-worded will - and also has to confront the pain of her own past.
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Sarah Fortune's name belies her recent life. A beautiful red-haired attorney, she's still recovering from the macabre attack of a now-deceased client, Charles Tysall, who became obsessed with her. The scars on her creamy skin have healed but will never disappear. Now the senior partner in her firm has asked her to travel to the seaside town of Merton to sort out a legacy left to the feuding Pardoe family. It is the same town where Tysall spent her summer holidays.
Sarah arrives in Merton to find that her clients consist of a dotty matriarch, two brothers (one nasty and one industrious), and a daughter sadly in search of self-esteem. And along a quay studded with cheap amusements and fish-and-chip wrappers lurks a ghost, a phantom who may be more dangerous than any flesh-and-blood villain--
"Brilliant-- A superb novel of psychological suspense that will keep you reading into the night." -The Globe and Mail
"Fyfield is well on her way to challenging the P.D. Jameses of this world for crime supremacy." -The Toronto Sun
"Elegant and Unnerving--Another haunting story of romantic obsession--[with] richly detailed portraits of complex people." -The New York Times Book Review
"Frances Fyfield, a lawyer herself, adds an extra dimension to detection." -P.D. James
"Frances Fyfield is a gifted writer who writes brilliantly about the darker side of English life. She should appeal to fans of Ruth Rendell and P.D. James." -The Denver Post
