Susan Chandler, district attorney turned psychologist, is host of the
popular radio show Dr. Susan.
One of her more interesting guests is a psychiatrist who has written
extensively about women who have disappeared. Susan finds the topic
fascinating, especially the case of Regina Clausen, a highly respected
financial advisor who has been missing for several years. Things grow
even more intriguing when Susan gets an on-air call from a woman who had
encounters similar to Regina's--she was courted on a cruise ship by a
handsome man who gave her a ring with the inscription, "You belong to
me." On the way to a meeting with Susan, the woman is gravely injured.
Coincidence? Susan thinks not. Her prosecutor's instincts kick in, and
she begins an investigation that involves a host of suspects, including
the trustee of Regina's family's estate, the jealous husband of the
mystery caller, and even the psychiatrist-guest himself. What unfolds is
a riveting tale of one woman's quest for the truth. Clark is a smart,
entertaining storyteller, and although this novel is not her finest, her
fans will request it in droves.
