Description
When Tatiana Zhukov was murdered, most residents of The Blackfriar Apartments breathed a little easier. Many of the tenants had secrets that Tatiana threatened to expose. Well, she was dead now, and they could all relax.
Until... until one day a few months later when Marissa Cruz had a note slipped under her door, a note that demanded a lot of money or else... The anonymous author of the extortion demand told Marissa to put a bouquet of white roses in her window when the money was ready.
Marissa thought she was the only victim, until she saw the white roses in other windows as well... It seemed that someone had stolen Tatiana's notes the night she was murdered, and now they were planning to be a lot richer at the expense of the residents of The Blackfriar Apartment Building, unless they were stopped, of course.
Turned out Bernice Andrews who lived in #9 thought she'd try her hand at a little blackmail... but her threats were based on Tatiana's gossip, not on Tatiana's damning notes. Not only had Bernice blackmailed Marissa, she'd gone after Marlon and Helen and Dino as well.
Bernice is in police custody now, charged not only with blackmail but the very crime Tatiana had whispered about - poisoning six husbands for the life insurance policies she taken out on them!
So, now Bernice is in custody, that should mean the residents of The Blackfriar Apartments sleep in peace, shouldn't it?
Alas, it seems somebody else was up to the same game... and that somebody was Dino, the building's handyman. Poor Dino, apparently one of his victims took umbrage to yet another assault on their wallet, and his body was found at the bottom of the stairs, just as Tatiana Zhukov had been found.
The Police think that Dino's cousin Pauli, a small-time wise guy from the Bronx, had something to do with Dino's sudden demise, but they aren't positive and some of the tenants are fearful that murderer still lurks in the building.
Unfortunately, they're right. There is a murderer lurking in the building, a murderer who plans to strike again!
