Short-listed for the 1992 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel
Bookstore clerk Rosalie Cairns was the one who found the body at the edge of the river; why did that make her a suspect?
As the quiet town is rocketed by a series of murders, neighbour distrusts neighbour, and the bookstore, once her refuge, is the centre of intrigue. The evidence against her husband mounts, and Rosalie is forced to join the dangerous hunt for the killer.
Not just a slick and hard-boiled mystery, this is a rich study of characters reacting to unexpected horror, and a look into the depths of small town life.
