"Smart, determined and resourceful" attorney and amateur sleuth Hollis Morgan returns to solve a case of libel, tabloids and murder (Portland Book Review).

A casualty of her late husband's nefarious white-collar crimes, probate attorney Hollis Morgan finally received an official pardon—just in time to help her friend, Catherine. The hard-nosed journalist is about to reveal the famously litigious philanthropist Dorian Fields for the money-laundering fraud he is. Hollis has sixty days to prove Catherine's exposé is well-founded. That's going to be tough. All the evidence against Fields has conveniently disappeared. And Catherine has been murdered.

Now, investigating Fields's shady past, drawn into a bitter family feud, and torn between two men vying for her attention, Hollis's built-in lie detector is ready to blow a fuse—professionally and personally. Because even though Catherine's killer may be hiding in plain sight, the motives for her murder could be the biggest secret of all in this "fast-paced . . . plot-twisting . . . page turner" (Long and Short Reviews).
