"A wealthy old widow is discovered, savagely battered, dead on her kitchen floor. DCI David Fyfe is assigned to the case, and though it seems to be open and shut - a man clutching the murder weapon was found lying unconscious in the old woman's front porch - something doesn't seem right." "If there's one thing that Fyfe has learned in his rocky career in law enforcement, it's that things are not always as they seem. Otherwise, why has Angela, a beautiful woman who was a suspect in a murder Fyfe investigated a few years ago - and who is the keeper of one of Fyfe's big secrets - turned up again?"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
