An excellent mystery story from the 1980s. I found it a quick and satisfying read. I found the mystery twisty but written is such a clear manner that I found it easy to follow and entertaining. Highly recommended.

A brother searches for the killer of his sister. Fast pace, excellent characterization. This novel won the Edgar for best mystery/suspense novel of 1984.
