DARK LADY

A summer rental in Connecticut, to work on his thesis on Deane Saxby who died without fulfilling his genius, brings Gilbert Fowler hints and promises of the dead man's past -- other than literary. Fowler, reconstructing the events of 1884, gathers information from old timers, reviews scrapbooks and clippings, the murder of Deane's wife, the suicide of his brother and the inescapable influence of his sister-in-law and comes up with a new answer to an old crime.
