Henry Parker Britland IV is wealthy, worldly and still youthful -- and enjoying and early retirement. His new wife, Sunday, as clever as she is lovely, has just been elected to Congress in a stunning upset victory that has made her a media darling. Henry and Sunday make a formidable team -- and never more so than when they set out to solve baffling crimes occurring among their friends in political high society. From a long-unsolved case reconstructed aboard the presidential yacht to a kidnapping that brings Henry frantically back to the White House, the former president and his bride engage in some the most audacious and original sleuthing ever imagined.

With her trademark skill at creating spellbinding suspense tinged with wit and more than a little romance, the mistress of suspense introduces another irresistible sleuthing duo who deliver entertainment of higher order.

"Mary Higgins Clark does a fine job with this duo. The collection of... stories ends too soon."

"Tantalizing... Fans of Nick and Nora 'Thin Man' movies...will fall in love with Mary Higgins Clark's newest detective team. Readers will hope there will be many more tales about them. A great treat..."

"These adventures are in keeping with Ms. Clark's more humorous fiction, such as her tales of the inimitable Will and Alvirah... Henry and Sunday... offer comic relief"
