Book Two in the Tom Sullivan Mysteries begins where ends, as the lifeless body of Private Detective Tom Sullivan is raced to the hospital. FROM THE DUST-JACKET: While Private Detective Tom Sullivan lies unconscious in his hospital bed, somewhere between heaven and hell, Lt. Wendy Slenzak pieces together the clues to discover the motive for what was potentially a double homicide. From his omniscient perspective, Sully narrates Wendy's journey from her home in the Hollywood Hills to the wine country of Napa Sonoma in search of Debra Dalton, the surrogate mother carrying the only living heir to a vast fortune. Following closely behind Lt. Slenzak is Sam Collier, father of the unborn fetus, husband of the woman who may have murdered Tom Sullivan, and a man who will stop at nothing to find his child.
