The Widow's Rose Garden

The widow of a reputed mobster is much more than a legal client needing a new will. It develops that she has effectively hidden a famous occupation with the use of a pseudonym. And, the lawyer she engages has never before practiced law, had any clients nor is he aware of her other life. The setting for this mystery is a remote island in the most eastern stretches of Long Island Sound, unlike any of the other small islands that dot the seas off the eastern end of Long Island's north fork. On this isle resides a woman shepherd who tends a flock of sheep for the widow. She, however, also has another life; being, in fact, an artist of repute.
These are only a few of the anomalies that figure prominently in the fast paced thriller, filled with many interesting characters, a number of sub plots and surprising developments that should keep the reader riveted to its pages from beginning to end.
