In the third trimester of her pregnancy, Baltimore private investigator Tess Monaghan is under doctor's orders to remain immobile. Bored and restless, reduced to watching the world go by outside her window, she takes small comfort in the mundane events she observes . . . like the young woman in a green raincoat who walks her dog at the same time every day. Then one day the dog is running free and its owner is nowhere to be seen. Certain that something is terribly wrong, and incapable of leaving well enough alone, Tess is determined to get to the bottom of the dog walker's abrupt disappearance, even if she must do so from her own bedroom. But her inquisitiveness is about to fling open a dangerous Pandora's box of past crimes and troubling deaths . . . and she's not only putting her own life in jeopardy but also her unborn child's.
My 2 Cents:
If you have seen Rear Window by Alfred Hitchcock you are going to love this book. Tess is funny in ways with the way her superstitions are about her baby to her friend Whitney. I love how Whitney goes on with Tess and sets her straight with no holding back. With her good friend Whitney and her protective boyfriend they all help Tess figure out the case. With so many twists you will be trying to figure out what happened till the very end.
