Items related to The Abortionist's Daughter (Vintage Contemporaries)
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.

Review:
"A smart and powerful thriller."
--Chris Bohjalian, author of Midwives "Arresting. . . . Astute. . . . Hyde is an author who should be with us for some time."
--Anita Shreve, The Washington Post Book World "Darkly witty. . . . [The Abortionist's Daughter] accordions out into a suspense story and a comic noir, a novel of manners and an improbable romance. . . . Striking."
--Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air (NPR) "In keeping with the truly best writers, Hyde examines both sides of the issue, but offers only questions that probe deep into the secret hearts of readers everywhere. For answers, they will have to turn to themselves. . . . Compelling and timely. . . . A must-read."
--The Denver Post
