Description
First there were roses and the notes in her mailbox signed simply, "Admirer." Then, the accident. One minute Chris Callaway was one of Hollywood's brightest rising stars, starting a new picture that could send her career skyrocketing; the next, she was falling from the unfinished deck of her beautiful new Malibu beach up blind, uncertain whether she would ever see again. An optimist and a fighter, Chris is determined not to let anyone know she can barely see. But neither Danny Devere, her show more hairdresser and confidant, nor Jon Larsen, the handsome young detective form LAPD's special stalker squad, can stop the notes that escalate into a chilling obsession. And as Stuart Woods's mesmerizing new page-turner races to its shocking climax, only a clever trap can stop the madman from stalking her--with beautiful Chris Callaway as the deadly bait. show lessTags

What a wonderful ol’ time mystery to read. Had some romance thrown in. A great homosexual hairdresser who is a real man! Set in the 90’s in Beverly Hills.
I would take the Rottweiler and the new hose being built in Malibu Beach.
Great read, good characters, can certainly relate to the being blind issues. Will certainly be reading more of this deceased authors books.
