Stephanie Sands is happier than ever, living in a lovely house in Westwick, happily married, busy in her garden and friendly with the neighbours. Then one day, her husband fails to return from a trip and simply disappears. Friends offering support and comfort, quickly become deadly enemies.
This was OK, I found the bitterness somewhat wearying, but eventually the story did get going. It was hard to care about any of the characters. and very irritating trying to work out whether it was set in the US or UK (never specified, not sure if this was deliberate!)
Witty account of intrigue, relationships and family life in suburbia. Some fun descriptions, and story unravels in a sitcom kind of way. Only less credible part was that a town council would side with a property developer out of self interest - shome mishtake, shurely? ;)
