Simona is using her vacation time from HH&H advertising to moonlight for old friends from Italy on a film called "Where Goes the Future?" The future of Johanna Gayle, the five million dollar star, seems shaky indeed when she's almost electrified in the Lincoln Center fountain during a night shoot. Everyone rules it an accident, but is it? Simona knows that anything can happen on a set where the star plays one man against the other, the director treats her actors like scum, and the aging protagonist obsesses about his vanishing sex. The worst does happen. Simona finds Johanna sprawled in the bedroom of her deluxe apartment, a copper wire around her neck. When Simona's detective boyfriend arrests Johanna's lover, the set photographer, Simona is ready to risk her job and boyfriend to exonerate her old Sicilian friend.

A recipe for Sicilian Good Fish Salad is included.

"Crespi deserves special congratulations for her characterization of Simona... Her] writing makes Simona seem very very human...the end result is a heroine who rings true."
--Jennie G. Jacobson, "The Drood Review of Mystery"

"For me, the independence, the insecurity and the introspection set Simona apart from a lot of today's female sleuths."
--Joyce Christmas, "Mysterious Women"

"The setup is good and Crespi is acutely perceptive."
--Susan Oleksiw, "Mystery Scene"

"Simona is an interesting character. She's smart and inquisitive and still trying to adjust to American ways. Her divorce has left her dependent and emotionally needy--a situation her detective boyfriend is trying to deal with."
--Oline H. Cogdill, "Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel"

Great Add In to Summer Chicken Salad!
This is a great add to a delicious summer chicken salad. Chop up rotisserie chicken, add chopped grapes, celery and vidalia onion, lite mayo, sea salt, pepper and Old Bay. Add a bit of chutney and chill! Serve a scoop on butter lettuce leaf. Yum!

Favorite Socks Ever
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I absolutely love these socks, they compress in the middle which is my favorite thing about them! Keeps them from slipping off my feet and also adds support, love love love how they feel and how long they last! This is my second pack that I’ve purchased, I had the multi colored ones before and they’ve lasted me two years before finally starting to wear out and fade and get holes. Definitely going to be routinely buying these every year. Good to wear with my work out shoes...winter boots, Nike sandals, and my everyday adidas sneakers. These are so worth it!

Great ankle socks that stay put at a great price!!
Size: 6-9, Color: Assorted
These are great! I have been looking for a low profile ankle sock that is thinner but doesn’t ride down. (Picky, right?) I try to walk 5-7 miles on my days off. So it’s very important for me to not have to stop every couple of hundred yards, bend down, fix socks, then continue on my way while grumbling about NOT GREAT socks. These are not those socks. They really do stay put!!! And enough cushion to be comfortable also. So definitely a repeat!!
