Publisher's Synopsis
"Shrew observation, on-target descriptions, believable characters and hilarious one-liners." PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY Private Investigator Tess Monaghan has good reason to be pleased with life. She's back in Baltimore where she likes to be, she's beginning to make a name for herself as a P.I., and she's even banking good money. She can relax - almost. Then her father asks a favour: to investigate the prison death of a friend's brother, jailed for the killing of an unidentified girl known only as 'Jane Doe'. Unwillingly, Tess looks into it. A trail emerges that leads her to the Sugar House, a brutal institution where she uncovers the real identity of 'Jane Doe'. And now, suddenly, Tess's father is begging her to drop the case... A Tess Monaghan investigation.
