by Emma Lathen
When Wall Street's John Putnam Thatcher and his Down East crony, Henry Morland, started hiking the Appalachian Trail, they hardly expected to stumble over a dead body. Nor did real-estate promoters Eddie Quinlan and Ralph Valenti plan to play hosts to a murderer at their luxurious, new vacation development. Now the head of the Sloan Guaranty Trust Department must again combine his financial skills and unbounded curiosity to solve the murder of a man nobody seemed to dislike enough to kill.

Emma Lathen was the pen name of two American businesswomen: an economist Mary Jane Latsis (July 12, 1927 – October 29, 1997) and an attorney Martha Henissart (born 1929), who received her B.A. in physics from Mount Holyoke College in 1950 (<a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Lathen>Wikipedia</a>). They also wrote under the pen name R. B. Dominic.
