Why was Marshall behaving so strangely before he died? What injustice was he planning to uncover? And what caused his abrupt change of heart? In the face of powerful and sinister forces determined to keep both the truth hidden and the troublesome coroner in check Jenny embarks on a lonely and dangerous one - woman crusade for justice which threatens not only her career but also her sanity.
