Joe Firretti is moving to Seattle, and has to get there in time or risk losing his new job. But fate's got a sense of humor.   -  Kate goes from rubbing elbows on a plane with a gorgeous but irritating stranger (doggone armrest hog) to sharing one travel disaster after another with him on four wheels.   -  Joe thought he had his future figured out, but sometimes fate has to knock you over the head pretty hard before you see what opportunity is standing in front of you...in a really god-awful poufy bridesmaid dress.   >>>   A young man fearful of violence, an extravagantly eccentric young woman and three deaths figure in this atmospheric but insubstantial mystery from one of England's finest horror/suspense writers. Philip Wardman, beginning his career as an interior designer, lives with his widowed mother and two sisters in a small house outside London. At his sister Fee's wedding, Philip meets Senta Pelham, cousin to the groom and a bridesmaid, with whom he falls quickly into bed and in love. Soon Senta, with her silver-dyed hair and exotic ways, tells Philip they must prove the unconventionality of their love: each must commit a murder. Secretly appalled, Philip demurs, but Senta is adamant and soon he tells her that a recent killing mentioned in the newspaper was done at his hand.
