When a convicted murderer is himself murdered in prison, the sister of the dead prisoner seeks out Tess Monaghan to unravel the identity of the woman her brother killed, and find an answer to why.

Media Reviews

"Lippman consistently delivers a multi-layered and meticulously plotted story. This, her fifth book, is no exception. But she also uses the mystery genre as an effective platform for examining the sense of displacement felt by many younger Baby Boomers."
