A Kiss Before Dying (The Best Mysteries of All Time)

Used hardcover in Good condition. A Kiss Before Dying' is a taught, suspenseful thriller about a self-absorbed sociopath intent on marrying into money. The novel is divided into three parts, each focusing on one of three heirs to the Kingship Copper fortune. The sociopath, who we meet on the first page, is beautifully drawn and impeccably believable as he plots and plans to marry youngest daughter, Dorothy Kingship, and then sees his hard work fall apart as things fly out of control. But you just can't keep a good sociopath down, and what won't work with one sister might work well enough with another.
