About the Author:
Margaret Yorke began her crime writing career with a series of whodunnits featuring the Oxford don, Patrick Grant, but she found more freedom for her imagination outside the confines of a continuous character. As a result she has become as well-respected as P.D. James and Ruth Rendell.
From AudioFile:
In the art of deception, Carrie Foster has no equal. She's been practicing since high school, and she now moves through life with assurance. Marriage to Gordon Walker, whose first wife is said to have left him, does nothing to slow down Carrie's trips to London for sexual adventure. Or in this case, misadventure. Carolanne Lyme has a thoughtful, cultured voice that engenders the listener's trust as plot and narrator mesh perfectly.
