Barrister Tam Buchanan is enjoying a rare, tranquil evening on the golf course. Poised gloriously on the brink of making the shot of his life, his concentration is abruptly shattered by the rude arrival of his exasperating former colleague, Fizz Fitzpatrick.

She needs his help. An old friend of hers, Irene Lloyd, has disappeared. Also missing is a Rubens painting Irene had been working on, worth millions.

Fizz refuses to believe Irene is guilty of the theft, even if all the evidence points to the contrary. She and Buchanan investigate, and soon become enmeshed in a tangled web of intrigue. What exactly is going on at the stately but impoverished Abbeyfield House?
Where had Irene’s clandestine taxi journeys been taking her? Did her obsessive boyfriend have good reason for his jealousy?

Together, the legal odd couple set out to uncover the answers in a captivating page-turner, full of invention and wit, that will keep you intrigued and mystified until the final revelations.
