About this title

Synopsis

In the Last Analysis

When beautiful Janet Harrison asks English professor Kate Fansler to recommend a Manhattan psychoanalyst, Kate immediately sends the girl to her dear friend and former lover, Dr. Emanuel Bauer. Seven weeks later, the girl is stabbed to death on Emanuel's couch -- with incriminating fingerprints on the murder weapon. To Kate, the idea of her brilliant friend killing anyone is preposterous, but proving it seems an impossible task. For Janet had no friends, no lover, no family. Why, then, should someone feel compelled to kill her? Kate's analytic techniques leave no stone unturned -- not even the one under which a venomous killer once again lies coiled and ready to strike…

The James Joyce Murder

Kate Fansler is vacationing in the sweet and harmless Berkshires, sorting through the letters of Henry James. But when her next-door neighbor is murdered, and all her houseguests are prime suspects, her idyll turns prosaic, indeed....

Poetic Justice

Kate Fansler is a willowy beauty who teaches Victorian literature and has a passion for the poems of W. H. Auden--poems that take on new meaning when death brings mystery to a great New York university. Reed Amhearst, of the D.A:s office, is her fiance--and the man investigating the death of one of Kate's arch adversaries.

The death was either innocently accidental or diabolically planned--with an uncomfortable number of motives pointed directly at Kate and her friends. And perhaps most sinister, the death occurred at a party given in Kate's honor.
