She is known as the "Sculptress" in jail because of the bizarre sculptures she creates, which are representations of the day she dismembered her sister and mother and put them back together in a jigsaw covered in blood. Olive Martin, a dark and ominous figure, represents the last chance for exhausted writer Rosalind Leigh to have a new novel published.
However, Roz discovers holes in the Sculptress's testimony upon interviewing Olive in her cell. Is she as guilty as she claims to be? Drawn into Olive's world of obsessional lies and love, Roz is determined to uncover the dark, complicated truth, no matter what. Not an assault on her life, not a violent ex-policeman and her own sensual reaction to him, not the prim suburbanites who'd like to forget the killings.
Not even the possibility of what might occur if the Sculptress was released...
