Product Description

Readers who enjoy Sue Grafton's novels will enjoy this murder mystery featuring a reluctant woman detective. If Lavinia Stout had known what she was getting into, she would have turned him down flat. Mark Bell, an old flame from her college days, asked for what seemed like a simple piece of detective work, a background check on some of his employees, but soon Lavinia found herself on a paranoiac odyssey into environmental pollution, mysterious men in black suits and murder. An electronically disguised voice told Lavinia over the telephone that she did not want to pursue the Bell Mining matter, if she valued her health and safety. The only way that she could get her life back in order was to find out who killed Jack Darling and why. . . .
