Private Investigator Nick Tanner's class reunion of Westland High School wasn't nearly as tiresome as he thought it would be. When he and his bestselling, mystery writer wife Kaye Wells got married, they agreed to work together and solve crimes. Since that time, they have had no trouble finding dead bodies. The reunion wasn't any different. The dead body of ex-classmate Marshall McCord, who everyone believed died in a plane crash ten years ago, suddenly appears. All evidence leads to the belief that McCord was murdered. Because Nick is Detective Joe Espinoza's ex-partner, and a graduate of Westland High, he enlists Nick and Kaye to help solve the crime. First, they need to find out why Marshall was going by the name of Tom Early. Then, the deeper they delved into the investigation, the more sinister developments they found, other than Marshall's murder.
