Description

From Jane Stanton Hitchcock, New York Times bestselling author of sophisticated thrillers Trick of the Eye and Social Crimes, comes One Dangerous Lady, a gripping mystery about a socialite's daring investigation into the disappearance of a wealthy art collector.

While in Barbados for a lavish high-society wedding, Jo Slater--once on the brink of social obscurity--is back on top of her game. But when her old friend, Russell Cole, disappears, Jo is convinced he's the victim of foul play--and that the perfectly manicured fingers of his latest wife, Carla, are all over the so-called accident.

Back in Manhattan, Carla's stunningly fast rise up the social ladder adds fuel to Jo's suspicions. And when a mysterious figure from Jo's past returns and tries to bring her down, the Park Avenue set learns that, when crossed, she is one dangerous lady.
