Book excerpt: In the wealthy suburb of Edina, Minnesota, Peter Kaufman has been a long-time serial wife abuser. He's terrorized four ex-wives and started on his fifth. Occasionally over the years, these women have been getting together for mutual support cake and coffee and fun fantasies of revenge, perhaps even murder. Now, suddenly, Kaufman has turned up dead. Did one or more of the wives conspire to "dust" him?Bobbie Druke is one of the detectives assigned to obtain the evidence for an indictment and conviction. She's surprised to find that her assignment is Georgia Pruitt, a beautiful and respected acquaintance from the past. As Georgia's tale unfolds, Bobbie is drawn into a series of sinister events that indicate that the abuse has not stopped with Peter's death. He seems to be virtually reaching out from the grave to attack the lives of Georgia and the other wives. Bobbie is drawn closer to Georgia as the focus of her investigation changes from prosecuting her to exonerating her and to protecting her from whomever or whatever is threatening to kill her. When Bobbie's evolving theory regarding Peter Kaufman's death finally gels, she finds that her concepts of justice have been totally altered.
