https://gvfa.smugmug.com/Events/CoasterTheatre/DeadGuiltyJan2016.  A tense
psychological study of guilt and obsession by the author of *The Business
of Murder*. *Dead Guilty *concerns an attractive young graphic artist whose
leg is badly injured in a car crash that occurred when a business associate
suffered a fatal heart attack at the wheel. Housebound and depressed, Julia
is tormented when things disappear, a Mexican orange blossom materializes
on her shambling Victorian terrace and someone prowls upstairs at night.
While a kindly counselor contends with Julia’s manic tendencies and a
besotted handyman helps around the house, the excessively solicitous widow
invades Julia’s life. Suspense builds as the question becomes whether the
affair Julia was enjoying with her now dead colleague will cost her her own
life. More info at http://coastertheatre.com/calendar/2016
