Who Killed Blanche DuBois?
New York mystery editor Claire Rawlings spends her days scrutinizing the motives and methods of fictitious criminals--but her precocious thirteen-year-old friend Meredith Lawrence has a keen eye for the cold, hard facts of crime. So when Meredith comes to New York to visit, the two mystery buffs put their heads together to sleuth out the truth about a real-life murder. When Claire's star author, the ferociously flirtatious Blanche Dubois, is found dead after eating a poisoned apple, there's no shortage of suspects. Many who knew her were jealous of her success--and just as many were put off by her haughty, demanding demeanor. With the help of a city detective, Claire and Meredith question Blanche's friends, colleagues, and relatives--and discover that even in the Big Apple, the world of murder is a very small world indeed. "Who Killed Blanche Dubois is an absolutely delightful and wonderfully clued story ... captures the reader's imagination." -- Romantic Times, November 1999 "Who Killed Blanche Dubois? is the work of a seasoned professional and it shows... pure entertainment at its best...." -- Geraldine Galentree, Remember the Alabi

Love is often associated with fantasy. A realm in which you can visualize, plan and then execute the kind of life you want with your beloved – the partying, the cars, the bling and the kiddos. Also, in this world where Charles Darwin’s theory of Survival of the Fittest, we are taught, by our ancestors that in order to live life to the fullest , you must choose a wealthy, well educated, healthy and well-versed woman or man so that when you are laying the foundation of your long-term plans, you have a strong skill-set to build on. However, in the last twenty years or so, love has become more about fulfilling certain needs in your life. We are so confounded by hectic schedules, redundancy and repetitiveness that anything different attracts us towards that synergy.
