The Fog Comes

THE FOG COMESIt starts with an evening of cocktails at Anne Horton's Carmel home. Her brother Tom is there, her younger sister Toni, and her boyfriend Lt. Gregg. Bill, Anne's sweetie, drops by, as does Sarah, Tom's ex-wife, and his new fiancé, Marion. And Anne's cousin, Laura, of course, who immediately gets into another verbal brawl with Tom. It's a lively evening and a foggy night, but eventually they all leave. The next morning, Laura's body is found on a seaside bench, brutally murdered. Police chief Wade questions them all, and it is soon revealed that Laura's source of income was due almost exclusively to her blackmailing. The next day, Laura's business partner is also found murdered. But who could have wanted them both dead? The whole family is under suspicion, but why does all the evidence seem to point to Tom?
