The Friday 56: After All These Years

Closest book: After All These Years Authoress: Susan Isaacs
Page 56 Sentence 5: "He was the size of a small Alp. Six feet six. Two hundred and twenty pounds. From Richie all he'd inherited was soulful black eyes, but at least they established his paternity. "Mom." His voice was deep and gentle. "Try to calm down."
Teaser blurb: "Richie Meyers tells his wife Rosie he is leaving her for a younger woman. Then he turns up murdered. Naturally Rosie is the prime suspect. Her only hope lies in uncovering Richie's secret life (and his killer) among the Manhattan jet set."

"The size of a small Alp" - I really like this comparison to the man's height. A very good one indeed =)

p.s. I am amazed that all the books you read seem to have such a lovely covers. This one included. I love it, so much.

She was a german shepherd. My parents bought her a year after I was born so I practically grew up with her.
