When the wife of an architect for a hugely unpopular real estate development disappears from a small-town in Rachel Wyatt's mystery novel Suspicion (Coteau $19.95), there is no shortage of suspects who might be the murderer. Her younger sister led the protests against the housing scheme and her father isn't keen to search for her. An anonymous chat room regular pseudonym-ed Marguerite seems to know more than anyone. If Agatha Christie was around today with an Apple computer, she might have invented 'Marguerite' instead of Miss Marple.
