A bit artificial in the bringing together of the characters but well written. Quote from the back cover: "Francine has been scolded and sent to her toom. When she peeks downstairs, she witnesses the brutal murder of her mother. But nine months later, when fRancine emerges from her near-catatonic state, she is unable to identify the killer. Harriet, a fading beauty, searches the local classifieds for a handyman who can perform odd jobs around the house and alleviate the sexual boredom of her marriage to a wealthy older man. Teddy, a handome young man from a deeply troubled home, never questions the ease with which he has learned to kill to get what he wants. The lives of these three collide for surprising, harrowing - and unforgettable - effect.
