BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Book ID/图书代码： 04283004B04953

English Summary/英文概要： The first time Matthew Hope saw Michelle Harper she was walking down North Sable Beach topless. The next day she showed up in his law office, battered from head to toe and ready to file for a divorce. The day after that Michelle was dead, her body burned on Whisper Key. The Calusa police arrested big, inarticulate George Harper, the beauty’s beastly husband. But Matthew Hope believed the big man, frightening as he was, was innocent, and Hope believed him even after George Harper made a violent jail break and another woman died. Because by then Hope had tapped into a circle of old friends and star-crossed lovers -- people who shared a secret that was, to them, more precious than life itself...
