SHARP EDGES

Eugenia Swift is a young woman of singular sensibilities, and a connoisseur of beauty. As director of the Leabrook Glass Museum, she''s been asked to travel to Frog Cove Island -- an artistic haven near Seattle -- to catalog an important collection of art glass. But thanks to unsavory rumors surrounding the collector''s death, the museum insists that Eugenia take along Cyrus Chandler Colfax -- a rough-hewn private investigator whose taste in glass runs to ice-cold bottles filled with beer.

When Colfax declares they must pose as a couple, Eugenia protests in a manner as loud as his Hawaiian shirts. But now their very lives depend on the most artful collaboration they can imagine. For a killer is lurking among Frog Cove''s chic galleries, and if anyone sees through their marital masquerade, their own secret agendas -- as well as their plans for survival -- may be smashed to smithereens!

Love''s passionate snags get the smooth touch in this sparkling masterpiece from Jayne Ann Krentz! Less
