Jake Bodine, in the tradition of Robert B. Parker's Spenser, is a somewhat laid-back private investigator, but fully capable of delivering a Sunday punch, pulling a trigger, or employing his ever-ready stiletto. In book-two of the series, the vivacious Maggie O'Brian, claiming the police have wrongly accused her of murdering her wealthy Irish husband, hires Jake to prove her innocence. The case takes him from Florida to Ireland and England, but the evidence piles up against her. The intrepid Jake pushes on, uncovering lies, deception, betrayal, and a ruthless killer bent on revenge. While in Ireland, he meets his soul mate, and true love quickly blossoms, then faces a life-altering showdown.
