When a Palm Beach widow dies, the dispute over her will turns deadly in this "breathlessly paced legal thriller" from a New York Times-bestselling author (Publishers Weekly). When wealthy Palm Beach dowager Althea Tillett dies under suspicious circumstances, it sparks a battle between those in line for an inheritance--including Gail Connor's old law school classmate and former lover Patrick Norris. He thinks someone has tampered with his aunt's will--preventing him from receiving millions he hoped to use for an urban renewal project. Although discouraged from getting involved by her own law firm and her lover, Cuban-American attorney Anthony Quintana, Gail agrees to look into Althea's rapacious relatives. But she soon finds herself in the middle of a family feud that's about much more than money. It's about secrets, lies, forgery . . . and murder. Written by a former prosecutor, this "provocative, breathless" national bestseller "will surprise you" (The Plain Dealer).
Barbara Parker was trained as a lawyer and worked as a prosecutor with the state attorney's office in Dade County, Florida, before moving into a private practice that specialized in real estate and family law. She earned a master's degree in creative writing in 1993, and her first legal thriller was Suspicion of Innocence (1994), which was followed by another seven titles featuring her two lawyer protagonists, the sometime-lovers Gail Connor and Anthony Quintana. While writing the Suspicion series, she also produced Criminal Justice, Blood Relations, The Perfect Fake, and The Dark of Day. Suspicion of Innocence was a finalist for the Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America, and two of her titles, Suspicion of Deceit and Suspicion of Betrayal, were New York Times bestsellers. Parker died in March 2009, at age sixty-two.
