Featuring: Kate Austen
Synopsis (from back cover):
Abandoned by her feckless husband, Kate Austen has all she can handle carpooling her five-year-old daughter to pre-school, baking for good causes, keeping her lawn mowed and devising survival tactics. It looks like everyone else in her affluent suburban neighborhood has it ultra-easy--until her fabulously wealthy next-door neighbor is found murdered.
A wickedly satisfying tale of murder, mayhem and modern suberbia, MURDER AMONG NEIGHBORS keeps the suspense simmering. As for Kate Austen, she'll keep those home fires burning as she moves bravely into a future filled with uncertainty, risk, and a tantalizing touch of home-town murder.
