And now, when Charlie tries to settle into her home for a brief vacation.
Disaster strikes again.
This time, the Long Beach, California agent finds death on her doorstep - well, actually her parking lot, when she discovers the body of neighbor Jeremy Fiedler in his Trailblazer along with a neighbor's angry and spooked cat. It's not until Jeremy's death that Charlie and the others in their securely gated little community come to realize how much they depended on Jeremy and how startlingly little they knew about him. In fact, Jeremy's life turns out to be as big a mystery as his death. The sometimes helpful, sometimes irritable neighbor who had a penchant for young girls and fancy cars might as well not have existed - no paper trail, not even cyberspace vapors. Charlie however has a long record of homicidal involvements as Detective J.S. Amuller is quick to notice.
