THE DEVIL TO PAY

Sidelined to administrative duties, Inspector Green misses the thrill of the chase. So when his daughter Hannah, now a rookie patrol officer, gets a call about a domestic disturbance, he is intrigued. Both husband and wife deny a problem and, despite Hannah’s doubts, no further police action is taken, but Green encourages her to dig deeper on her own. When the husband disappears and his car is found at the airport, the police conclude he is simply fleeing an unhappy home, a floundering law practice, and a mountain of debt.
Until a body is discovered.
