Tori Crane's job at Miracle Lake Lodge doesn't usually feed her passion for writing about crime. But finding a dead millionaire, and meeting Sam, a charming young mortician who suspects foul play, turns her life upside down. As Tori and Sam dig through the millionaire's storied past they discover ex-lovers, abandoned children, and plenty of people with old wounds. But who has the means, opportunity, and heart cold enough to kill?
