description: When Edward Blake's wife is kidnapped he doesn't trouble the police, just pays out the twenty-five grand. But three months later she finally turns up - in a box. The police are interested now, especially when they hear about the two and a half million pounds' worth of insurance Blake had taken out on her life...“One of those wonderful books in which the reader is pulled into the story no matter how unwillingly. The characters force you to read on. (Baker is) a novelist who combines a light humour with a viciously sharp penetration into how our minds work.” G. Lock, Shots.“A really fine book. Splendid writing, very convincing characterization, a plausible crime, and central relationships that really work. Dora is a marvellous character, wonderfully developed.” Michelle Spring, novelist.“The over-riding force in the book is Dora, the relationship between her and Sam, the unspoken messages that convey to the reader the strength of their love, and the power of the mind, as Dora reflects on her past, and sees truths that had previously eluded her. A terrific book. Highly recommended.” Lizzie Hayes, Editor, Mystery Women Magazine.
