Willow King is no ordinary newlywed. Convinced that marriage would invite disaster, she has resisted Chief Inspector Tom Worth's courting attempts for years. Once married, however, this combination civil servant, glamorous romance writer, and amateur sleuth is happier than she ever thought possible. When she is called on by England's Minister for Rights and Charters to investigate the suspicious suicide of Dr. Fiona Fydgett, a famous art historian and trouble-maker, Willow is certain the minister is wasting his time and hers. The case seems obvious: Dr. Fydgett clearly had something to hide when the tax office began to investigate her. Willow is given the cold shoulder in the tax office, but she forges ahead to learn everything she can about the elusive Kate Moughette, the devilish Jason Tiller, and Fiona's sister Serena, a judge with many secrets. When a fire breaks out in the tax office and kills the inspector who headed the inquiry into Fiona's finances, Willow begins to feel the investigation's heat. Her biggest fears are then confirmed when her husband is mysteriously shot. Willow knows she must act quickly or become the next victim in Natasha Cooper's engaging tale of the public and private lives of a worldly and spirited sleuth.
