Synopsis
Long Island housewife Judith Singer is incredibly bored. So when a local dentist is found murdered and the police suspect her neighbor, that's all the excuse Judith needs to jump in and begin her own investigation. In between school runs and making dinner, she is drawn deeper into the case-and closer to the police detective in charge.

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Uk Edition. Hardback. First UK Edition. Slight foxing to edge. Wear and tear to edges of D/J. Judith Singer is, on her own admission, big-breasted, long-legged, not perfect you understand, but not bad. (She was a student of American Government for nine years and always meant to complete her dissertation. She married Bob instead: he was the 'sensitive' Singer, too pure to join the family firm. Two months later, irretrievably sullied, Bob is claimed by mammon and family. It's not too bad a fate - 80,000 dollars a year, a shimmering, green bathroom 'with all options' and only a little fat round the waist. 313 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
