| Sue Grafton Unabridged CD 11 Hours
Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege, the only child of an adoring
father. Over the years, he quietly settled her many scrapes with the law,
but he wasn't there for her when she was convicted of embezzlement and sent to
the California Institute for Women. Now, at thirty-two, she is about to be
paroled, having served twenty-two months of a four-year sentence. Nord
Lafferty wants to be sure she stays straight, stays at home and away from the
drugs, the booze, the gamblers.
It seems a straightforward assignment for Kinsey: babysit Reba until she
settles in, make sure she follows all the rules of her parole. Maybe all
of a week's work. Nothing untoward--the woman seems remorseful and
friendly. And the money is good. but life is never that simple, and
Reba is out of prison less than twenty-four hours when one of her old crowd
comes circling around.
This complex and clever money-laundering scheme is just a clever cover for a novel
that is all about love: love gone wrong, love betrayed, love denied. And love avenged.
