Of course I know your name and at least one of your novels - the second one somehow escaped my attention - Presently Tomorrow must have created quite an impression, for I remember it well, although I've read [it] quite a good time back.

SHE WAS HIS FANTASY... The nightly dreams of making love to Molly Dumont had been Mike Randall's lifeline during the five long years of his wrongful imprisonment for murdering his wife. But released now on an overturned conviction, he changed his name -- and his face -- and the new Mark Ramsey wanted only revenge. Everything about Perry's Cove, N.C., was the same as Mark remembered, including the good-ol'-boy sheriff who'd put him away. And Molly Dumont. In the flesh, she was better than in his fantasies -- and harder to resist. But as Mark closed in on the real killer, he faced the question that burned in his gut: Was Molly the enticing innocent he remembered -- or was she part of the conspiracy?
