THE LADY'S LAST LOVER...
A dead body is horrifyingly altered after a week in Scotland's River Tay. Nevertheless, Dr. Jean Montrose is fetched to the crime scene at dawn. She barely recognizes her patient, once-beautiful Moira Dalgleish, young widow, mother of a six-month-old son, and daughter of Perth's finest family.
Everyone assumes one of Moira's many lovers has done her in. But Detective Inspector Douglas Niven, smarting over orders to tread lightly in this sensitive case, wants Dr. Montrose's opinion of Moira's life among her blue-blooded kin. Soon Dr. Montrose is rubbing shoulders with the upper crust to examine dark secrets and deadly lies. She must also confirm a medical suspicion and put into operation a risky plan that may catch a killer--or make the next corpse Niven finds her own...
