Certain that someone has targeted her family for destruction, attorney Marianne Dow hires private detective Kit Deleeuw to follow the trail of a terrifying stalker
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
A bizarre case for mall detective Kit Deleeuw (Death by Station Wagon, 1993): his client, lawyer Marianne Dow, is convinced that Andrea Lucca, her friend from Buns of Steel, is determined to break up her family--not simply because she has designs on Marianne's Wall Street husband Gil, but because she likes breaking up families. And a quick check with other Buns of Steel alumnae confirms that Andrea has indeed pulled the same stunt with them, befriending the women, sleeping with their husbands, and then moving on. But Kit can't talk to Andrea--she's disappeared--and suddenly, with the murders of Gil Dow (brained as he sat in his bathtub with Marianne just a few yards away) and aerobics instructor Roberta Bingham, Kit finds himself in his Volvo chasing leads all over the New Jersey interstates and uncovering an abused childhood that leaves him wondering whether there's anything Andrea wouldn't do. The final solution, though eminently guessable, is startling confirmation of how deep into the suburbs the mean streets reach. Especially recommended for anybody considering moving out of the city. -- Copyright ©1994, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.
Private investigator Kit Deleeuw, formerly a Wall Street broker, now works out of a mall office in suburban Rochambeau, where we first met him in Death by Station Wagon (Doubleday, 1993). A woman lawyer asks him to investigate a female "friend" she believes has targeted her family for destruction. Deleeuw, who is leery until someone murders the lawyer's husband, shifts his investigation into high gear. Most of the description here centers on the subject of family, as the title indicates; family plays an integral part in character motivation. A successful series second; for most collections.
