Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Very Good+ dj. First Edition. [a nice clean book, minor shelfwear only, spine very slightly turned; the jacket is lightly edge- and surface-worn, with some slight crinkling at the spine ends]. A psychological suspense novel about a woman who dreams she died four years ago, and discovers a grave in the cemetery that lines up with the details of her dream -- except that the headstone bears another woman's name. Her subsequent "search for the lost day of her imagined death becomes a quest for the meaning of several lives, and for her own survival. As her nightmare emerges into reality, it threatens her comfortable relationship with her husband Jim, and thrusts her into more disturbing relationships." Per the jacket blurb, this was the author's seventeenth published novel; the "about the author" bio does a nice job of discussing her life, schooling, and hobbies, and in passing mentions that "her husband is also a writer," without identifying him as Kenneth Millar aka Ross Macdonald.). Illustrated by (dj design) Bob Cox (illustrator).…
