Surprise! Nora Roberts can write! This early-90s offering soft-pedals the romance and concentrates on thriller elements as women in a small Southern town start turning up dead. I had a suspicion as to who the real killer was -- obviously not the hunky hero -- but Roberts peoples the story with enough engaging characters to keep the pages turning. My only gripe is that the minor characters were hard to keep straight -- Earleen and Myrleen and Darleen, and Bobby T and Billy Lee give us a break, Nora!
