Book summary


After 20 years abroad, Mrs. Ranelagh returns to England intent on securing justice for "Mad Annie," a local woman who, Ranelagh is convinced, was murdered by someone who felt that the Tourettes-afflicted Annie was a distasteful nuisance. When she voiced her suspicions 20 years before, nobody believed Mrs. Ranelagh. But this time, she vows, it's going to be different.


Media reviews
