DYING FOR MERCY

In this latest Eliza Blake suspense offering, Eliza and her television news co-workers must solve the mystery surrounding the gruesome death by stigmata of a prominent New York politician's husband. A series of clues quickly ties a 20-year-old unsolved disappearance as well as a string of recent rapes to his death. Isabel Keating's rich, cultured voice and deliberate pacing bring to life this clever and intrigue-filled story of wealth, greed, and high-society secrets, in the finest Mary Jane Clark tradition. Keating’s portrayals of the various characters—from pompous matron to innocent child—are polished and interesting. Fans will not be disappointed in the story or its narration.
