Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. John Wright (Author photograph) (illustrator). First Printing [Stated]. 299, [3] pages. Map facing title page. Signed by the author on the title page. DJ is in a plastic sleeve. Returning to an embittered family seven years after a mysterious abandonment, Maria Buscombe is murdered while attempting to contact her daughter, and Staff Sergeant Karl Alberg must seek the truth about why she went into isolation. Laurali Rose "Bunny" Wright (née Appleby) (5 June 1939 - 25 February 2001) was a Canadian writer of mainstream fiction and mystery novels. Many of her stories are set on the coast of British Columbia. She was educated at Carleton University, the University of Calgary, University of British Columbia, and later at Simon Fraser University (Master of Arts in Liberal Studies, 1995). In 1959, Wright worked as a journalist at the Fraser Valley Record; she wrote for the Saskatoon Star Phoenix, but her first article was for The Globe and Mail about being a teenager in Germany. While in Vancouver, Wright met John Wright. The two were married. She worked for several years as a journalist at the Calgary Herald, eventually becoming Assistant City Editor, before turning to full-time writing in 1977. Wright published her first novel, Neighbours, in 1979. Her earliest novels were literary fiction; after the publication of The Suspect (1985), her first mystery novel and winner of the 1986 Edgar Award for Best Novel, she concentrated almost exclusively on the genre. Wright received the Arthur Ellis Award and wrote several adaptations of her novels for CBC Radio. Her novels have been published and distributed throughout the world in several languages. Derived from a Kirkus review: Sgt. Karl Alberg's 11th case begins when Maria Buscombe, returning home seven years after she abandoned her husband and teenage daughter, is killed in her rooming house before she can speak to them. But Maria's murder is only the tip of a grim iceberg, since the leading questions about her death, who was paying her $20,000 a year to stay away from her family; why was she so willing to go; and why did she decide to break her contract by returning, take Alberg back past the scene of Maria's unceremonious departure to horrifying revelations about her past: the discovery, shortly before she left, that she was adopted and that her newly discovered birth mother has unimaginably good reasons for not wanting Maria to know about her. Meanwhile, back in the present, Maria's daughter, now married, wonders what legacy her mother left her and the child she feels growing inside her, and poet/snoop Hamilton Gleitman and gambling bookstore-manager Everett Danforth await their destined appointments with Wright's doomy plot. If you have a taste for grownup demons looming out of the fog of memory, you can't do better than this wrenching tale.
