Murder rears its ugly head only after shared family stories and relationships establish a stylistic context. Employing her intimate knowledge of the place, Knott discovers who assaulted her teenage niece and killed a randy building inspector inside an unfinished WomenAid house." 241 pages. CONDITION: a bright, tight, square unmarked copy with minimal shelf-wear, lightly creased only on the pre-scored line adjacent to the front spine edge.
