Industrious Mrs. Highet's first casual attempt at fiction, titled Above Suspicion and published under her maiden name, Helen MacInnes, became a runaway bestseller and a first-rate film.

As Libby, the frigid literary snob, Jessica Walter unreels bits of the yarn through hearsay, as only a cat can. As Dottie, a staid Bostonian who decides to let a casual acquaintance seduce her, Joan Hackett intuitively lights up every scene she is in. And Shirley Knight, as Polly, reads gentle truth into every word and gesture. Leading the second rank, Candice Bergen, as the Lesbian "Lakey," is a stunning presence. Most important of the men in their lives are Larry Hagman...
