False Pretenses

By Catherine Coulter

Heat level
Behind closed doors

Elizabeth Carleton. A beautiful and dazzling concert pianist. She seemed to have it all. But when her fabulously wealthy husband is murdered, Elizabeth stands accused--and not even her surprise acquittal in a cliffhanger trial can quiet the whispers of her guilt. Now three attractive men appear out of her past, offering to help her, to protect her. But whom can Elizabeth trust when she alone knows that the real killer may be stalking her and that her late husband's ruthless family vowed to destroy her?

Content warnings

For your information, not judgment.

Severity reflects intensity, not value — “central theme” means a warning is a core part of the book, not that the book is bad.
