New York: St Martin's, (1992). Hardcover first edition - A novel that begins with the disappearance of Connie Sawyer, an American spending her junior year at a London university. "Easter break is over, but Connie, along with several others, has not returned to her classes - -and back in the US, Connie's mother, Dee, hasn't had a letter in weeks. . . . . Dee flies to London, leaving behind her indifferent, philandering husband Hal, settles into a hotel, and starts asking questions. She's soon joined by a widower Stan Thatchpole, whose daughter Alison has also gone missing. The dean is concerned with making no waves; the police are no help; but Dee and Stan do find allies - or are they enemies? Meanwhile, Connie, a victim of amnesia, is trying to put together a new life, wondering why incoherent, fleeting glimpses of the past are so terrifying.. .
