From the acclaimed New York Times best-selling author of Still Missing, More than You Know, and Gossip comes the first entry in a stylish and witty mystery series featuring a pair of unlikely investigators - a shrewd novel of manners with a dark heart of murder at its center, set in small-town New England.

She also knows that justice does not always prevail - and that the difference between conviction and exoneration too often depends on lazy police work and the ambitions of prosecutors. She knows, too, after a lifetime of observing human nature, that you have a great advantage in doing the right thing if you don´t care who gets the credit or whom you annoy. Feeling that jus... 1.
