Hardcover. Zustand: Used: Good. Prompt Shipment, shipped in Boxes, Tracking PROVIDEDLunatics & Sociopaths - FictionChyna Shepherd is a twenty-six-year-old woman whose deeply troubled childhood taught her the hard rules of survival, and whose adult life has been an unrelenting struggle for self-respect and safety. Now rare trust has blossomed for Chyna into friendship with the woman whose family home she is visiting for the weekend: a farm in the Napa Valley surrounded by vineyards and hills, which Chyna can see from the guest-room window where she sits at one o'clock in the morning, fully dressed, unable to sleep. Suspicions she learned in childhood still make her uneasy in unfamiliar houses-even this one, where her closest friend is sound asleep down the hall. And in this case her most disturbing instincts prove reliable.

But when she inadvertently learns the identity of Vess's intended next victim, waiting for him far from Napa Valley, Chyna is gripped withconcern for this other person, who is as innocent as Chyna, and as endangered.…
