At a party in Manhattan, Maggie Holloway-one of the fashion world's most successful photographers-is thrilled to be reunited with her beloved former step mother. A widow now, Nuala Moore is equally delighted to see her long-lost stepdaughter, and invites Maggie to spend a few weeks at her home in Newport, RI. But when Maggie arrives, she finds Nuala murdered, apparently by a burglar. Heartbroken, Maggie is stunned to learn she has inherited Nuala's charming Victorian home. . .and horrified when she begins to suspect that Nuala death was not random, but part of a larger scheme conceived my a twisted mind. When Nuala's dear old friend, Greta Shipley, dies suddenly of supposedly natural causes, Maggie is convinced there is a link between the two and other recent deaths among the wealthy older women of Newport. What she doesn't realize is that now she has become a target for the killers as well, and that each clue she uncovers brings her closer to an unimaginable fate.
