A totally satisfying mystery. Even though I haven't read anything by this author previously, and this book is the latest of a series, I found it easy to know the characters and their relationships. ( )

Book description
Haiku summary

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0771012756, Hardcover)

Just hours before her body is found in a car in a parking lot, a young woman hands her baby to a perfect stranger and disappears. The stranger is the daughter of Delia Wainberg, a lawyer in the same firm as Joanne Kilbourn's husband. One close look at the child suggests that there might be a family relationship, and soon the truth about the child Delia gave up for adoption years ago comes out. The boy must be Delia's grandson. Then his mother is found dead, sexually assaulted and murdered. Not only is there a killer on the loose, but the dead woman's partner is demanding custody of the child.

(retrieved from Amazon Wed, 20 Apr 2011 10:24:27 -0400)

The custody battle that ensues after a baby is abandoned by the soon to be murdered mother leads to conflict between Joanne Kilbourn and her lawyer husband Zack when each takes a different side in the case.
