Genevieve Delacourt, (Gen), a Lawyer turned Private Investigator, and Cambria Butler, (Bree), who has given up her dream of being an Investigative Journalist, who were friends from college days, meet up unexpectedly one day and discover they are living in the same apartment block. They are thrilled to see each other, but Bree is in a rush to interview a chemical engineer called Andrew Ducane who works for Elergene Enterprises, so the two women agree to arrange a catch up very soon.Bree arrives at Elergene Enterprises only to discover a body. She is in shock and is accused of committing the crime by Taylor Vonnegon, the CEO, who calls the police. Bree is taken to the police station and there meets Detectives Garcia and Hackett. She calls Gen and the two women find themselves meeting up again much sooner than expected, with Bree asking Gen to act as her lawyer.The story continues apace, with many twists and turns. Has the person died of natural causes or is it as the two women suspect, a murder, and if so who has committed it? What is Vonnegon's part in all this? Bree can't make up her mind how she feels about him. The two women decide to take matters into their own hands and do some investigating for themselves. When the detectives realise that they can't keep Bree and Gen out of the investigation, they join forces. The two women find themselves getting deeper and deeper into danger, especially Bree whose life is threatened, but she won't listen to the detectives who try to keep her safe, as she realises that this could be her opportunity of becoming the journalist she always wanted to be. I don't want to give any more of the plot away, but suffice to say it is a very good story, well written and keeps you engrossed from beginning to end.
