Quick Brown Fox

by Susan B. Kelly

Jennifer Donleavy leads an enviable married to handsome actor Andrew 'Don' Donleavy, living in a picturesque Suffolk village, tending her lovely garden and the owner of two dogs; what more could she want? A friend, perhaps. And when novelist Suza Darc comes to live in the village, she becomes Jenny's companion and confidante, the sister she always wanted. Then strange accidents begin to or is someone doing these things deliberately? And who is it who sends Jenny the anonymous letters warning her to take care of her husband? Surely it's just a coincidence that Don and Suza both have business in London on the same days -- and Don's new-found desire to combat middle age by diet and exercise is only natural for an actor ... isn't it? Where -- and how -- will it all end? Will Jenny wake up to the truth in time? And what, indeed, is the truth of this curious affair?

[Ann Foster · Rating 2 out of 5]

A mess of a book. Had a promising beginning. Then it fell apart.
