A CLEAR CONSCIENCE

Frances Fyfield has written another top-notch psychological novel, which Rula Lenska reads with skill. The relationship between Bailey and Helen West continues to grow and becomes more complex with this book. In addition, the other characters ring true both in voice and accent. Fyfield explores the frustrations of the legal community in dealing with the physical abuse of its clients. Fyfield's characters are never perfect, though their motives are always understandable. Lenska is certainly able to make them come alive. D.M.W. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB 96]
