Sunday, July 13. 1:46 A.M. Near Lookout Hill and Laurel Canyon. An unidentified female in her twenties, putting on a nightgown, was the victim of a hit-and-run crash that still left her unconscious and really injured. There were no witnesses.
So reads the survey on the crash off Mulholland Drive in Molly Blume’s Crime Sheet column for a regular Los Angeles tabloid. Just another small L.A. tragedy, soon overlooked.
But the image of the young female in her nightgown stumbling along a dark, winding highway is one Molly, a freelance true-crime copy writer, cannot shake. Actually, it draws her to a bedside in extensive care, where the sufferer whispers to her three titles: Robbie, Max, and Nina. It’s not really a smoking gun, but is sufficient to reinforce Molly’s gut instinct that there are sinister circumstances behind the assault on Lenore Saunders.
With fearless conviction, Molly asks questions that no person—including Lenore’s mother, her ex-husband, her shrink, or even Molly’s L.A.P.D. buddy, Detective Connors—wants to answer. Nevertheless, the astute Molly discovers Lenore resided a fractured life, so not the same as Molly’s own secure and loving Orthodox Jewish qualifications. So that as a chilling picture of the unfortunate woman begins to take condition, the menace of murders past and present stirs and quickens.
In her first Molly Blume book, award-winning novelist Rochelle Krich tells a story in the traditions of the fantastic L.A. mysteries of the former—and introduces an investigator who's pure platinum. Twentysomething divorcee Molly Blume, with her profound faith, short skirts, and nose area for the truth, is a heroine to treasure.
