Description:

At fifty, David Crown, a robust, practical man, had finally achieved everything he ever wanted: the presidency of a large corporation, a luxurious mansion in Pasadena, and marriage to the lovely, sensual Abby—all made possible by the death of his best friend—Abby’s husband.

Only Ladd—Abby’s young, handsome son—finds the new arrangement less than ideal. He is convinced that his father has been murdered by his stepfather and he sets out to do something about it. Soon David Crown’s happy state of affairs rapidly turns into a chilling nightmare from which he can find no escape.—back cover [Suggest a different description.]
