Final Jeopardy

Final Jeopardy  - Linda Fairstein Assistant DA Alexandra Cooper reads in her morning paper that she's dead, which comes as a certain amount of surprise to her, so she goes about informing people that this is untrue. In fact it's her sometime friend. actress Isabella Lascar who had borrowed her house on Martha's Vineyard. Alexandra prosecutes rapists and stalkers, did the killer want her or the woman who was killed? It's interesting, you can tell it's a first novel and the author is finding her feet, and I never suspected the actual killer to be who it was until very near the end. Clever misdirection kept me guessing. I also loved the relationship she had with several other characters in the story, both male and female, particularly her close friend Mike Chapman.
