Product Description
(Brilliant heart surgeon and twice-widowed mother of four, Bella is the paragon of a working woman. Beautiful, disciplined and ferociously intelligent, she is the envy of her colleagues and the favourite of her friends. But something, somewhere, is wrong.Joseph Sunderland, a criminal psychiatrist,is excited and intrigued when he meets Bella at a party. Immediately attracted by her arrogance and incisive wit he also notes the steel-trap memory and complete silence about two dead husbands. There are some startling inconsistencies in her behaviour: by turns warm and distant, she also shiversunaccountably, and her children wear the troubled faces of orphans.Joseph soon finds his professional interest overshadowed by a fierce battle of wits with a woman who has much more than the secret of her success at stake.'An elegant psycho-thriller likely to hook you from the opening sentence to the superbly ambiguous finale')
