All my Enemies

From the Dust Jacket; Kathy Kolla has arrived. The bold stratagems of Long's most gifted young homicide detective have paid off, and she's been rewarded with an appointment to the inner sanctum of thief-catching; New Scotland Yard, Serious Crimes Branch. Yet for all the imperatives of her boss, Chief Inspector Brock, that Kathy keep her head down and her file clean, the first case she is assigned seems destined to become her most notorious yet. A young woman is found viciously murdered in a leafy, well-heeled suburb, and the grotesque details of her slaughter appear well rehearsed, even theatrical. With this third installment in the Kathy Kolla and Chief Inspector Brock series, Narry Maitland has created a story of dazzling intricacy and suspense. It is an exploration of the deceptions behind marriage, suburbia, and the dramatic arts, in which a corpus of plays becomes a template for murder, precipitating a climax as audacious as it is stunning and unexpected.
