Lorna Kepler was beautiful and willful, a loner who couldn't resist
flirting with danger. Maybe that's what killed her.
Her death had raised a host of tough questions. The cops suspected
homicide, but they could find neither motive nor suspect. Even the means
were mysterious: Lorna's body was so badly decomposed when it was
discovered that they couldn't be certain she hadn't died of natural
causes. In the way of overworked cops everywhere, the case was gradually
shifted to the back burner and became another unsolved file.
Only Lorna's mother kept it alive, consumed by the certainty that
somebody out there had gotten away with murder.
In the ten months since her daughter's death, Janice Kepler had joined a
support group, trying to come to terms with her loss and her anger. It
wasn't helping. And so, leaving a session one evening and noticing a
light on in the offices of Millhone Investigations, she knocked on the
door.
In answering that knock, Kinsey Millhone is pulled into the netherworld
of unavenged murder, where only a pact with the devil will satisfy the
restless ghosts of the victims and give release to the living they have
left behind.

pain and grief where killers still walk free, unaccused, unpunished,
