The Monarchs are Flying: A Novel"A narrow-minded small-town community, a homophobic investigator, the bludgeoned and denuded body of a young married woman in a cheap motel room - and a web of evidence ensnaring the victim's ex-lover, Leslie Taylor. Rather than face the double jeopardy of being tried for both murder and her lifestyle, Leslie is determined to plead guilty. Harriet Fordham Croft, the big-city lawyer brought into the case by the murdered woman's husband, is equally committed to having Leslie stand trial. The result is a courtroom drama that changes the live of both women forever"--P [4] of cover. |
