The road to hell is paved with all sorts of intentions, as Oxford private investigator Zoë Boehm discovers when a straightforward jewelry store robbery turns out to be anything but.
When Tim Whitby checks into a hotel in Oxford, he doesn’t intend to check out again—but then he meets Katrina Blake, a woman in dire need of help. When Arkle, Baxter and Trent inherit the family business, they aren’t planning to keep it running; there are quicker ways to get rich. And when Zoë Boehm agrees to track down the gang who robbed Sweeney’s jewelry shop, she doesn’t expect to wind up in a coffin. But Arkle has a crossbow, Tim is out of options, and even the battered Katrina has her secrets. And death, like taxes, can’t be avoided forever.

“Dazzling ... Smart, dogged and never down for the count, Zoë is a fine addition to the ranks of female P.I.s. ”
