WHY SOMEONE HAD TO DIE

By

Pub Date: Jan. 23rd, 1975
Publisher: Doubleday

Someone--a girl disguised in a wig and eyeglasses--rents a flat in one of those London suburbs where she comes and goes unnoticed for the last time. The police relate the so-called Helen Jones to a young woman whose baby had been kidnapped six years earlier. This is not quite all that it seems, and you'll want to wait around for that other bootie to drop. Miss Roffman constructs her story with especial care and conviction--virtues not to be undervalued or overlooked.
