Great plot, and a page turner to the end. Author as Editor A Woman's Eye Short stories involving female sleuths. The main character, Gail Connor, is a divorced attorney living in Miami who is engaged to marry a man of Cuban descent. As the book progresses, suspects appear in all these facets of her life. While she is the recipient of the threats, it is her young daughter who is in danger.
Some authors sabotage their female characters.
This book contained some of these elements, in my opinion, and the main character seemed to lack depth as a result. I remember another of her books as being really good, so I may try this author again. A 17 year old model's claim that she was raped opens up a can of worms for Detective Sam Hagen. Early in the book I was able to see, I thought, what had happened when a teenaged boy disappeared and his parents sought Spenser s help in locating him. I was right, but still thoroughly enjoyed reading this Spenser opus.
