Careless in Red: A Novel
Elizabeth George
Harper, 2008

Careless Whispers (Indigo)

Alers Is My Favorite!
I searched high and low to find each novel written by Ms. Alers. I felt a loss when I came to the end of another and estatic when the next arrived (mail order). Careless Whispers was no exception. Well done!
