Review Quotes:
"In her latest thriller, Footsteps in the Night, clever Dolores Hitchens takes as her theme the fact that there are skeletons in the closets of the most unlikely homes. You won't go wrong with this new Crime Club selection."--H. Viggo Andersen, Hartford Courant
"Mrs. Hitchens weaves an ever-interesting story of life in a small Californian subdivision, in which each family has a secret that the murder forces into the open--all shrewdly and compassionately observed."--Anthony Boucher, New York Times
"Hitchens's unnerving tale has a wonderfully dark, ominous tone, and the many shifting viewpoints and criss-cross motives help shape it into a thoroughly riveting, intricate page-turner."--Nicholas Litchfield from his Introduction
