AN ACCIDENTAL WOMAN

This story flows as smoothly and predictably as maple sap during a New Hampshire spring. Ostensibly, the story is about the arrest of popular Lake Henry, New Hampshire, local Heather Malone for a murder committed fourteen years earlier in California. But the real story is that of the growing relationship between Poppy, who is paraplegic, and her suitor, writer Griffin Hughes. Anna Lauris reads with the pleasant, breezy voice of the girl next door, a tone that complements the story's celebration of community, true friendship, and the restorative value of love. D.L.G.
