About the Book
Housewives Thru the Decades Series - The 1950s (Yeah, they were desperate then too!) In the small town of Stepp's Ford, kids rode their bikes and salesmen sold their wares door-to-door, both taking advantage of the long summer days. At night, residents nestled into their beds, forgetting to lock their doors and leaving their windows opened to cooling breezes. No one expected treachery among their own because in this land of flag-waving and apple pies, everyone knew their neighbor....But did they really? Yes, July 2, 1957, was a day like any other, or so it seemed to those on Twilight Circle, until Orson and Joan Weldon moved into the house at 212, several strange tracks were discovered in the patch of woods nearby, and the Omega salesman disappeared... On the circle, Dana Wynters has her hands full, being newly divorced and taking in her nine-year-old nephew, Remy, for the summer. In addition, a handsome stranger has rented the garage apartment next door to Dana Wynters. Sam "Mac" Macready claims to be a mystery writer, although Dana rarely sees him writing. Still, her two neighbors encourage Dana to snatch Mac up before some other divorcee lands him. And Mac can't help but notice Dana's stunning blue eyes and curvy figure that would have any guy whistling "Dixie." But Dana and Mac's romance keeps hitting a snag, because in this quiet, little town, murder may have been done. And it seems all the neighbors have skeletons in their closets and they'll do anything to keep their secrets buried. Especially Mac.
