The Secret of the Villa Mimosa (1995)
“She was wearing a matching yellow flowered silk dress with a smattering of yellow diamonds pinned across her bosom, and her lips bore a fresh coat of bright pink lipstick. She was sitting at a table on the terrace at the Hôtel du Cap, waiting for Bea and Phyl to arrive from the airport. But she wasn’t thinking about her friends. She was thinking about the telephone call she had received in the early hours of that morning, from an attorney in Ohio.
“Who the hell is calling me from Ohio at two-th...irty in the morning?” she had demanded groggily, reaching for her eyeglasses and putting them on as though they would help her understand more clearly what he was saying.
