Publisher's Synopsis
Quinto libro de la serie protagonizada por la reportera e investigadora Laurie Morgan y el equipo del programa de televisión Bajo sospecha.
Hace tres años, Virginia Wakeling, miembro de la junta directiva del Museo Metropolitano de Arte y una de sus más importantes donantes, apareció muerta. Habìa sido arrojada desde la terraza del museo la noche en la que se celebraba una gala para recaudación de fondos. El principal sospechoso del asesinato fue entonces, como sigue siendo ahora, su joven novio y entrenador personal, Ivan Gray.
Ivan regenta un establecimiento llamado Punch, financiado en buena medida por la difunta Virginia... y frecuentado por Ryan Nichols, el nuevo presentador de Bajo sospecha. Fue él, de hecho, quien propuso investigar este caso cerrado para el programa. Cuando la productora, Laurie Moran, lo acepte, pronto se adentrará en una red de secretos y traiciones hasta descubrir que el peligro también lo acecha a ella.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The New York Times bestselling Under Suspicion series by the "Queen of Suspense" Mary Higgins Clark and Alafair Burke returns with this gripping mystery following television producer's Laurie Moran investigation of the unsolved Met Gala murder-in which a wealthy widow was pushed to her death from the famous museum's rooftop.
Laurie Moran's professional life is a success-her television show Under Suspicion is a hit, both in the ratings and its record of solving cold cases. But her romantic break from former host Alex Buckley has left her with on-air talent she can't stand-Ryan Nichols-and a crippling sense of loneliness.
Now Ryan has suggested a new case. Three years ago, Virginia Wakeling, a member of the Board of Trustees of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and one of the museum's most generous donors, was found dead in the snow, after being thrown from the museum's roof on the night of the Met Gala. The leading suspect then and now is her much younger boyfriend and personal trainer, Ivan Gray.
Ivan runs a trendy, successful boutique gym called Punch-a business funded in no small part by the late Virginia-which happens to be the gym Ryan frequents. Laurie's skepticism about the case is upended by a tip from her father's NYPD connection, and soon Laurie realizes there are a bevy of suspects-including Virginia's trusted inner circle.
As the Under Suspicion crew pries into the lives of a super wealthy real estate family with secrets to hide, danger mounts for several witnesses-and for Laurie.
