When Edward Blake's wife India was kidnapped, he didn't trouble the police, just paid the twenty five grand ransom. But when she didn't show up and the kidnapper went to ground, he did call in the law, who figured that the whole thing was a set up between India and some secret lover. But then, three months later, she turned up in a box, having been left to starve to death. The police became really interested, especially when they found out about the two and a half million pounds' worth of life insurance he'd taken out on her the year before. But with no proof they had to let Edward Blake go. The insurance company, however, is less than keen on paying up. Jill Sheridan, insurance assessor, needs someone to do some legwork, poking around in odd corners of Blake's life, and her thoughts turn to an old flame: Sam Turner.

Got to work today to find this waiting for me - I haven't been in for a week, so not sure how long it's been sitting here.

Many thanks gg, I'll look forward to reading this soon.

Having a clear-out, time to let this one go - off to the charity shop. If you pick up this book, it would be great if you can let us know how you enjoyed it, and whether you decide to keep it or let it continue on its travels. We'd love it if you would make a Journal Entry to let us know you've got it, and maybe a Release Note if and when you let it go again.

Many thanks - happy reading!
