Jackie Shepphard, a long-divorced attorney, moves from L.A. to a little town in Colorado, trying to shake the malaise she feels from her young son's death. It's hard to be accepted as the newcomer in a small town, but the handyman she hires is very friendly. Soon he becomes more than just a friend. She writes off his odd behaviors as understandable given what he's told her of his past, but when he becomes really bizarre she starts investigating.
This book was written in 1992. It's a workable "fem-jep" psychological thriller, very easy to figure out early what's really going on. Robyn Carr fans might like to search it out but I know a month from now I will have no memory of reading it. Still, it moves right along, it has (mostly) believable characters and good dialog.
