Publisher's summary

Evan Delaney, novelist and legal go-fer, is dressed as Diana Ross in order to crash a fancy-dress party and serve a summons, when she hears that Franklin Brand is back in town. Brand is the hit-and-run driver who sentenced Evan's lover, Jesse, to life in a wheelchair, and killed his best friend.

Since the accident, Brand has been avoiding justice overseas; but if he's back, Evan and Jesse are determined to get him, helped by the dead boy's brother Adam.

Brand had been a high-flier in Mako Technologies, a cyber-security firm, and this is where Evan starts looking. She quickly uncovers evidence that Brand was embezzling funds, and that Adam's brother knew all about it. So maybe that hit-and-run wasn't an accident at all? Then the policeman investigating is killed, and Adam and Jesse both come under suspicion.

The plot has more twists, thrills, and spills than a white-knuckle ride, and is complicated by the confused emotions of the main parties involved: Jesse feels a survivor's guilt; Adam resents the fact that Jesse is alive while his brother died. But there are more corpses - including a near miss for Evan herself - to come before the bad guys are finally brought to justice.

Crack another case with Evan Delaney.

A Hundred Afterthoughts In Search Of A Story

Meg Gardiner should have known better than to create this jumble of a confusing, disjointed, and meandering story. Having more characters than the invasion at Normandy did not add anything to clarity. I kept thinking that the editor in charge of this project must have been on vacation or lost her red pencil along with forgetting the words omit and delete. My review distilled down to a bumper sticker is, "Uninspired."
