A Fun read. What's a female detective to do when she gets sideswipped by a high risk pregnancy? Lie on her porch for the last 2 months on total bed rest. With a pair of binoculars.

What follows is a novella with homages and tributes to varied classics. Rear Window obviously comes to mind... But you will see a lot more. Good taut mystery, hidden in a book that was written for serialization in the NYT. now in book format. Fun.

Oh... does anyone else get the reference to Pet Semitary?

Fly far little book!

Put in the Medicine Chest V Bookbox.

I read Pet Sematary a LONG time ago...so no promises there.

Private investigator Tess Monaghan is sidelined by her pregnancy, so she watches the goings-on outside her window with binoculars...and discovers a mystery.

Since Pakistan's flag is green and white, this book with a predominantly green cover is released for the victims of the recent bombing in Pakistan and victims of terrorism worldwide. To quote John Lennon, "Imagine all the people living life in peace..."
