| Abstract | "A deadly puncture from the sharp heel of a stiletto gives "love triangle" murderous new meaning in this gripping gothic mystery Henry Moreland is stabbed in the back and found lying on the road outside his young lover's house. There is no blood, however, and the only clues are an anonymous letter and a triangular hole in his coat. The murder weapon? A sharp stiletto. Richard Redfield, a lawyer who seems to be infatuated with the dead man's girlfriend, offers to help a New York City detective and his psychic daughter unravel the crime. Blending the gothic with a hard-boiled investigator, more than 150 years after its publication, the book still surprises and shocks!"-- Provided by publisher. |
