About This Book

LIFE-STYLES OF THE RICH AND FATAL

Dunwoody is the kind of place where opulent homes and luxury cars are the measure of a person's worth...where the veneer of suburban serenity and gracious hospitality is rarely shaken. But behind the tennis dates and teas, the cocktail parties and mixers, whispers of scandal--and murder--run as rampant as in any dry, dusty Southern town.

Yvonne Delacourt is one of Dunwoody's most beautiful people: wealthy; ambitious and, with her soft black hair and violet eyes, drop-dead gorgeous ...until the day she's found lying in her guest room with a letter opener through her heart. Only one set of fingerprints shows up on the murder weapon: Walter Delacourt's, Yvonne's husband. Yet someone who knows Walter from years ago knows he's no killer. Part-time sleuth Sheila Travis steps in to clear her old friend's name--and turns up more people who passionately despised Yvonne than there are names on the country club waiting list.

But all it takes is one with a reason--and a secret--worth killing for....
