Now Henry is dead, and Clara is summoned to deal with the latest convulsion in an old family tragedy.<br>Haunted by the never-explained disappearance fifty years ago of her lovely daughter, Ellen, Clara's Aunt May ignores a kindly anonymous letter advising her to let Ellen rest, or live, in peace -- and suddenly dies. And so begins Clara's first solo case, a tragic, twisting tale that winds far into the past -- back to Prohibition, bitter family feuds, secret love affairs, and a cherished, laughing girl.<br>In this lively puzzle, author Eleanor Boylan, whose own aunt Elizabeth Daly, wrote eight Henry Gamadge mysteries, does her aunt -- and her readers -- proud.<br>"[A] charming contemporary mystery in the classic mode." -- The Washington Post Book World
