If the woman they thought was killed 32 years ago is still alive - then why has Jim Fitzgibbon spent all those years in prison for her murder? And someone was cremated - so who was she? On the face of it, a nice easy investigation for private eye Claire Tanner. She should probably find it suspicious that someone is prepared to pay her more than she's ever earned before.

And she finds the idea of luxury accommodation, not to mention meals that would normally be beyond her budget, irresistible. If only she'd followed her father's advice and learned to keep her mouth shut when opening it could offend people who regard others' lives as expendable.
