The Widow - Softcover
Brilliant heart surgeon and twice-widowed mother of four, Bella is the paragon of a working woman. Beautiful, disciplined and ferociously intelligent, she is the envy of her colleagues and the favourite of her friends. But something, somewhere, is wrong.
Joseph Sunderland, a criminal psychiatrist, is excited and intrigued when he meets Bella at a party. Immediately attracted by her arrogance and incisive wit he also notes the steel-trap memory and complete silence about two dead husbands. There are some startling inconsistencies in her behaviour: by turns warm and distant, she also shivers unaccountably, and her children wear the troubled faces of orphans.
Joseph soon finds his professional interest
overshadowed by a fierce battle of wits with a
woman who has much more than the secret of
her success at stake.
