{"product_id":"2940170768240","title":"Nighttime Is My Time","description":"\u003cb\u003e\"The definition of an owl had always pleased him: a night bird of prey...sharp talons and soft plumage which permits noiseless flight...applied figuratively to a person of nocturnal habits. 'I am The Owl,' he would whisper to himself after he had selected his prey, 'and nighttime is my time.'\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJean Sheridan, a college dean and prominent historian, sets out to her hometown to attend the twenty-year reunion of Stonecroft Academy alumni, where she is to be honored along with six other members of her class. There is something uneasy in the air: one woman in the group about to be feted, Alison Kendall, a beautiful, high-powered Hollywood agent, drowned in her pool during an early-morning swim. Alison is the fifth woman in the class whose life has come to a sudden, mysterious end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdding to Jean's sense of unease is a taunting, anonymous fax she received, referring to her daughter -- a child she had given up for adoption twenty years ago.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the award dinner, Jean is introduced to Sam Deegan, a detective obsessed by the unsolved murder of a young woman who may hold the key to the identity of the Stonecroft killer. Jean does not suspect that among the distinguished people she is greeting is The Owl, a murderer nearing the countdown on his mission of vengeance against the Stonecroft women who had mocked and humiliated him, with Jean as his final victim.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47115648729328,"sku":"2940170768240","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170768240_p0.jpg?v=1763717015","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170768240","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
