"Laura Lippman, the award-winning master of psychological suspense, is in top form in this collection of diverse and diabolically clever stories. In the never-before-published 'Just One More,' a married couple, longing for that old romantic spark, creates a playful diversion that comes with unexpected consequences. Lippman's beloved Baltimore PI Tess Monaghan keeps a watchful eye on a criminally resourceful single father in 'Seasonal Work,' while her mother, Judith, realizes that the life of 'The Everyday Housewife' is an excellent cover for all kinds of secrets. In 'Slow Burner,' a husband's secret cell phone proves to be a dicey temptation for a suspicious wife. A father's hidden past piques the curiosity of a young snoop in 'The Last of Sheila-Locke Holmes.' Plus seven other brilliantly crafted stories of deception, murder, dangerous games, and love gone wrong -- irrefutable evidence that Laura Lippman's riveting fiction will more than satisfy any crime reader"--,Provided by publisher.
