Abstract:
"Detective Sergeant Alexandra Cupidi is a recent transfer from the Metropolitan Police to the rugged Kentish countryside. She's done little to ingratitate herself with her new colleagues, who dislike her brash city talk and her principled stance on police corruption- shortly after her arrival, she investigated her first partner, a veteran detective, and had him arrested on murder charges. Now newly assigned to look after the brazen young constable Jill Ferriter, Cupidi is facing another bizarre case: a woman flound floating in a local marshland, dead of no apparent cause... Juggling her work, her aging mother, her teenage daughter, and the loneliness of country life, Cupidi follows this case and another unsolved murder into a tangled knot of intrigue and international conspiracy that profits off society's most vulnerable and forgotten people"--from front jacket flap.
