The story of Roy Valois, a sculptor, who's never quite gotten over the death of his wife 15 years ago. He suddenly learns he has only months to live as he learns that his wife may have been leading a double life.

I love the way this author weaves a tale and I was hooked from the first page.

I thought this book was just "okay".....a little disappointing.

* * ½* Artist stumbles upon an error in his future obituary regarding his late wife. When he begins to look further, people begin dying. Is there a coverup regarding his wife, who was she?

Sounds intriguing, and Abrahams is a skillful author who creates a page-turner. But there are times when decisions made are implausible and the action proceeds for the wrong reason. Coulda been a contendah.
