But for all its glitz and glamor, Ashwood guards the dark secrets of its fashionable residents . . . including those of Edward's estranged wife Alicia, her lover Arthur Pendle, and would-be detective Sarah Payne. Soon, they will all face a hurricane of courtroom drama, public outrage, and the behind-the-scenes scheming of cold and corrupt District Attorney Terence Penrose.
Meanwhile, those caught up in the most scandalous crime of a new century have reputations to protect . . . skeletons best kept hidden away in the tidy closets of trendy Ashwood . . . and plenty of reasons to keep the motive behind Edward Miller's murder from ever seeing the light of day - a motive that only the victim and his killer knew ...
Can justice be done . . . and the truth uncovered by the Avenging Angel Detective Agency . . . before a killer strikes again?
