Book Description

Publication Date: 1998

Private eye Sharon McCone takes on a routine surveillance as a favor to Rudy Goldring, a longtime client of her employer, the All Souls Legal Cooperative. She tails one Frank Wilkinson through Golden Gate Park's tropical gardens, the early morning flower market, and other horticultural landmarks. The man's business seems harmless. But when she arrives at Goldring's downtown office to report her findings, she finds him dead. Now caught in the middle of a murder investigation, Sharon decides it's time to visit Wilkinson's home turf - the town of Hollister, whereranching is the main vocation and minding your business is the golden rule. There, Sharon unearths a tangle of sour relationships. Some of the strands lead back to the city, straight to the middle of its community of upper-class activists and deep into the world of the homeless.

Frank Wilkonson spends his Sundays looking through all the horticulture spots in San Francisco. Who's he looking for? What's he looking for? That's what Sharon McCone has been hired to find out. Where her search leads her is what we find out. Sharon's friends have mysterious pasts, and she investigates thoroughly. If you enjoy intricate mystery plots, you'll love this one.

Marcia Muller is adept at describing relationships. In this book we meet at least two difficult and selfish husbands whose wives are coming apart with drugs or anger. THERE'S SOMETHING IN A SUNDAY is one of the better entries in the Sharon McCone series.

Sharon McCone, a private investigator, is asked to follow Frank Wilkonson and report his activities to a man named Rudy Goldring. Instead of participating in illegal activities, as Sharon expects, Wilkonson visits various florist and garden outlets. As she delves into Wilkonson's past and present endeavors, she uncovers a complicated web of love and betrayal. Two murders occur and Sharon knows that she must find the perpetrator in order to prevent more killings from happening. This is a typical tightly-woven, well-written mystery from the creator of the female PI, Marcia Muller.
