When you're a hard-nosed, shoe leather reporter like Natalie Joday of Bergen County, NJ, murder investigations are just another day in the life. But when she discovers that her trouble-magnet brother Daniel was the last to see the late Lydia Dow alive, Natalie's enthusiasm for finding the truth turns to dread.

But Natalie is determined to find Lydia's killer regardless, even if that means talking to the deceased's nearest and dearest―an eccentric cast of characters ranging from a chauvinistic, bullying father to an introverted sister to an overprotective boyfriend.

But Lydia's will complicates the investigation, forcing Natalie to follow the considerable money trail... right back to her brother. Now she must choose between hiding the truth and protecting Daniel or risking everything to investigate long-buried secrets of the past―including her own.
