Living in a small town in Colorado, nineteen-year-old university student Megan Thompson is beautiful, cool, and sexy - the kind of girl boys fall in love with. She's steered clear of family life since the death of her younger brother until the day she hears her mother, Diana, has been found floating face down in their swimming pool. Diana, as Director of the Center for Reproductive Choice, was a national figure who inspired passions - and made enemies. Detective Huck Berlin is brought in to investigate when it becomes clear that Diana was murdered. Several people had quarrelled with Diana on that fateful day, including her husband Frank, and her wayward child. Now father and daughter are thrown together in an unexpected twist of family life.

Work Description
Two weeks before Christmas, Diana Duprey, an outspoken abortion doctor, is found dead in her swimming pool. A national figure, Diana inspired passion and ignited tempers, but never more so than the day of her death. Her husband Frank, a longtime attorney in the DA's office; her daughter Megan, a freshman in college; the Reverend Stephen O'Connell, founder of the town's pro-life coalition: all of them quarreled with Diana that day and each one has something to lose in revealing the truth. Meanwhile the detective on the case struggles for the answers -- and finds himself more intimately involved than he ever could have imagined.From the Trade Paperback edition.
