Midnight in Malibu

RACHEL O’NEILL is an American writer living in Cornwall England. In this fifth novel of the series, Rachel faces the decision of a lifetime - will she or will she not marry Moscow-ite Maxim Ballenchine on New Year's Eve? In the meantime she's tying up loose ends and travels to the U.S., first to sell her dead mother's mountain cabin in Montana, and her dead father's estate in California. While in Montana she rescues a screenwriter, Allegra McAdams, from an SUV roll-over accident. Allegra and her brothers have been left with the responsibility of their family cattle ranch near Kalispell in Montana. But the startling coincidence is that Allegra also owns a home in Malibu, California, on the same street as Rachel's son. Rape and murder, romance and a who-dun-it is rolled up into this latest novel by Rebecca Buckley. So hang onto your hats and come along for the ride.
