Magic hour - Susan Isaacs

Love and murder meet in Magic Hour—a peerless love story about a homicide detective, and the suspect he loves.

Long Island's fabled Hamptons are a filmmaker's dream: a stretch of exquisite beach where deals are made and games are played all day long, and far into the night. But between light and dark, night and day, there is the "magic hour," the brief period of enchanted luminescence that is just right for making movies, or making love. Or murder.

In Susan Isaac's bold and witty new novel, ruthlessness and tenderness, passion and true love meet when an urbane and enigmatic movie mogul is murdered, and Detective Steve Brady, local bad boy and recovering alcoholic, discovers that the prime suspect is the woman they shared.

A spellbinding mystery and a poignant love story, Magic Hour recreates the Hamptons' world of high-cheekboned elegance and down-on-the-farm authenticity as the locals and the privileged meet and clash. This is the story of the cold-blooded murder that rocks them all—and of the police detective who is too tough, too world-weary, ever to fall in love—until he does.

Magic Hour—an entertainment that snaps with style, a mystery that sizzles with suspense, and a romance that ignites with desire... every moment is pure pleasure.
