Publisher's Synopsis
When an elderly lady is stabbed to death in her own home, DI Hillary Greene is instantly puzzled. There's no appearance of a robbery; Flo Jenkins, popular with her neighbours, hadn't an enemy in the world. And everyone knew that, riddled with cancer, she'd only weeks left to live. Why kill a dying woman? Greene's investigation is not helped when her new DC turns out to have a violent temper and an uncertain past. With no forensics, no leads and only a junkie grandson as a suspect, is this going to be Hillary Greene's first failure on a murder case?
