Perhaps it is a blessing when Jasmine Dent dies in her sleep. At long last an end has come to the suffering of a body horribly ravaged by disease. It may well have been suicide; she had certainly expressed her willingness to speed the inevitable. But small inconsistencies lead her neighbor, Superintendent Duncan Kincaid of Scotland Yard, to a startling conclusion: Jasmine Dent was murdered. But if not for mercy, why would someone destroy a life already so fragile and doomed? As Kincaid and his capable and appealing assistant Sergeant Gemma James sift through the dead woman's strange history, a troubling puzzle begins to take shape -- a bizarre amalgam of good and evil, of charity and crime . . . and of the blinding passions that can drive the human animal to perform cruel and inhuman acts.
Scotland Yards Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and Sergeant Gemma James have never dealt with death so close to Haines. Jasmine Dent, a friend and neighbour of Duncan, is found dead. Because she was terminally ill, the initial consensus is suicide. But to Gemma’s dismay, Duncan finds himself unable to let go of the case. And as Duncan and Gemma corne Gloser to finding out the real reason for Jasmine's demise, they find themselves growing ever Gloser to each other...
