Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
YA-- Fans of Detective Fiona FitzGerald, tough-but-vulnerable Washington, D. C. cop, will enjoy her latest challenging case: Was the famous dead congresswoman a suicide or a murder victim? To add to the excitement, an autopsy reveals that the middle-aged woman was six weeks pregnant, and evidence suggests that her estranged husband could not be the father. Woven into this tale are several complicating threads. FitzGerald walks a social tightrope as a white woman in a police environment dominated by African-American men. Powerful government officials want the case solved as soon as possible--but as a suicide, not a murder. Influential leaders from both sides of the abortion debate clash; the victim was a national leader of antiabortion forces. And in private life, Fiona, determined to become a single mother, has decided on the man she wants to father her child. Adler carries this case forward with speed and ingenuity, tying up loose ends nicely with a satisfying closure for readers and an ironic twist for the heroine.
