Natural Causes

By John Levin MD

Dr. Sandy Burnham has spent eight years patching up other people's lives. Her reward is two weeks at Pearl Island, the most exclusive resort in the South Pacific, where the brochure makes a single promise. Whatever you desire, Pearl Island provides.

Then the man she's fallen for dies at lunch, laughing one minute and convulsing on the floor the next. The body is flown out before her hands stop shaking, and the death certificate reads natural causes. Sandy knows better.

Back in Los Angeles, nobody wants to hear it. The police have no jurisdiction and the widow slams the door in her face. When a smooth lawyer drops by her office to explain how careers end, Sandy stops asking permission. She dyes her hair red and flies back into paradise as her own twin sister, where her only ally is a wisecracking private eye hunting a partner who checked into Pearl Island and never checked out.

Paradise keeps a price list. Sandy is about to learn what's on it.
