The Locked Door (Paperback)
Staff Reviews
Nora Davis, a successful surgeon, is distressed to learn that one of her patients has been brutally murdered. The horrendous killing is similar to a serial killer dubbed "The Handyman", who is Nora's father although she has spent her life hiding that fact. This was a gripping, tension filled story of twists and turns which kept me speculating the entire book if Nora was the killer or was it someone close to her trying to frame her. Prepare for a long night as you try to figure out what the secret is behind "The Locked Door"!
