Socialite Rosalie Towne Malloy's suicide is gym owner and newly-licensed P.I. Dave Danbrough's first major case. It lands in Dave's and his boss Tanya Grey's laps when Rosalie's supposedly dead son shows up at Grey Investigations.

A suspicious hit-and-run doesn't kill Dave. Neither does the explosion at his client's house. The Securities and Exchange Commission violations and interstate commerce frauds? Not his problems. He doesn't even have to fight the bad guys at the ninja granny's studio on the rez.

But one thing really hurts. Rosalie didn't have to kill herself to keep her secret.
