'Baby's Breath' is a true-to-life murder mystery about a most uncomfortable subject: the tragic death of an infant. But who, as protagonist Gracie Barufaldi keeps asking, would want to kill a baby? Skilfully woven with well drawn characters, the book has a startling twist for a conclusion, and will keep readers guessing until the very end. Set in the beautiful Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts, 'Baby's Breath' like all of West's books, blends the charm of small town country life with the darkest of motivations. The result is a perfectly crafted tale of events that could, and do, happen anywhere.
