The Second Goodbye

Book 3

THE TUCKER SINCLAIR SERIES

"Smiley's prose is like butter, and she depicts her major and minor characters with a keen eye for the telling detail...
while the plot hums along like Tucker in her snazzy Porsche Boxster. These elements plus a rich melange
of supporting characters make for an amusing and satisfying read."
