Edith Bowersox is a wealthy woman with a very dark past. Edith accumulated a sizable estate by having murdered her first rich husband as well as the wife of a man that she later married for his money and eventually had him killed by her lover. Apparently this did not seem to bother Edith's conscious until the last several years of her life.

With the 2010 calendar year about to end, Edith is found dead in her estate house. A bitter contest is waged over her Will that eventually results in the death of one of the lawyers, which turns the case from a local police investigation into a full blown federal criminal investigation when Edith's nefarious past is discovered by law enforcement.

As a result of the ensuing litigation, an attempt is made on the life of another attorney which has triggered intense scrutiny on the part of the FBI. This will lead the FBI agents investigating the attempted murder to refocus their inquiry into who murdered Edith Bowersox and if all of the other crimes are interrelated.

With the FBI agents vigorously pursuing each lead, they will come to grips with a brilliant suspect who is far too clever and manipulative than they had thought possible. To solve this mystery, FBI agents and federal prosecutors will be forced to conduct an investigation that leaves no stone unturned in their pursuit of justice.

In a riveting story of greed, dishonesty and deceit, the author will leave the reader guessing the ultimate outcome until the very end.
