A Splash of Red — Antonia Fraser

With the ringing of the phone, the terror began....

Jemima Shore couldn't be sure the mysterious phone call was meant for her. After all, no one knew that Britain s most popular newswoman was staying at Chloe Fontaine's flat or-- that the tempestuous novelist was off with her latest amour. But Jemima understood the threat only too well when Chloe turned up unexpectedly, in the worst possible condition---with her lily-white throat cut. Suddenly Jemima's investigative skills were being used to probe her friend's most closely guarded secrets. For Chloe, ever one for danger in love, had made a bitter enemy--one desperate enough to kill, and perhaps, kill again.
