Puppet

Twenty-eight-year-old criminal attorney Amanda Travis races through her life, her only concerns being herself, a good bottle of wine, and her condo. But when an ex-husband calls to tell her that her mother shot a man at point-blank range in the lobby of a Toronto hotel. All too soon, she is drawn into the dark, strange power her mother seems to hold over everyone. Her childhood nickname, Puppet, echoing in her ears, Amanda must face the past in order to break the ties that bind. Fielding is the bestselling author of "Lost," "Whispers and Lies," "Grand Avenue," and other acclaimed novels.
