The Abortionist's Daughter by Elisabeth Hyde

Two weeks before Christmas, Diana Duprey, an outspoken abortion doctor, is found dead in her swimming pool. A national figure, Diana inspired passion and ignited tempers, but never more so than the day of her death. Her husband Frank, a longtime attorney in the DA's office; her daughter Megan, a freshman in college; the Reverend Stephen O'Connell, founder of the town's pro-life coalition: all of them quarreled with Diana that day and each one has something to lose in revealing the truth. Meanwhile the detective on the case struggles for the answers -- and finds himself more intimately involved than he ever could have imagined.

Elisabeth Hyde grew up in New Hampshire and worked for the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. for a short time. She took a break in 1982 to write her debut novel, Her Natural Colors, and hasn't looked back since. She has received Bread Loaf Writers Conference working scholarships, teaches creative writing through artist-in-residence programs, and is the author of Monoosook Valley and Crazy as Chocolate. Her family and she live in Colorado.
