Bob promises he'll only be in the grocery store for a minute, so Louisa waits in the car as the rain pours down. And Bob was right-he comes out again very soon, but at his side is a blond in a red suit and four inch heels. He gets into the other woman's car and drives away into the night. Has Louisa just been ditched by her new boyfriend, or has she witnessed a kidnapping? Foiled in her attempt to follow the other car, Louisa realizes just how little she knows about Bob. She bumbles her way through clues like a mysterious message on Bob's phone machine; a woman's name and phone number in purple ink on a matchbook from a bar; and an armed man who chases her through the woods before she finds Bob-and learns that the danger has just begun. The first of a series set in fictional Willow Falls, Missouri, Henegar's characters would be at home conversing with someone from a Fannie Flagg novel. Louisa will keep you laughing and cheering her quest to find Bob and survive a determined murderer who knows that...
