It was Detective Superintendent Nick Bogardus, on holiday in a prosperous Northern town, who brought in Solo Malcolm to help a private investigator who was finding the case too much for him.
Who was it who had taken the attractive night-club singer from the luxury of the Torch Club to the bleak desolation of Brickett Wood to shoot her dead? This was the problem which confronted Solo Malcolm, the tough, rough and incorruptible private eye, when he made the long journey northward...

    Vancouver Detective Kate Morgan has had bad days before, but getting a message about her long-lost brother hit her hard. She couldn’t trust some anonymous source, yet neither could she let any tip slide. What if it was the one tidbit that gave her information as to what happened to Timothy, now missing some twenty-six years and counting? She would do anything for those answers. 
    Simon St. Laurant, the reluctant psychic and her steadfast boyfriend, knows Kate is hurting on a level he has never seen before. He understands and would do everything possible to help her, even if it pushes him out of his comfort zone with his gift. When a little boy contacts Simon from the other side, he’s trying to be hopeful … 
    However, as the case unravels, it doesn’t go in the direction either of them thought—or had hoped it would.

    I always wanted to have a big family. That's why I created my own. My husband is my heart. My mom is my ribs. My kids . . . They are the air I breathe. Without them, I'm not whole. Everyone has dark secrets, yet mine are the kind of life-altering skeletons that could threaten the very mission I've spent my entire life fighting. My children think they know my story, but they don't. Not all of it. Not the parts that would make them question everything they know in life. My constant has been my love for Stan and that's a truth I'll always share.

She may have taken my last name, but she made it worth more than I ever could have imagined. Years ago, I vowed to spend eternity fighting by her side for missions close to our hearts. Our children think they know our story, but they don't. We had a life before them. One many aren't aware of. My love for Duchess has only gotten stronger, but now it seems the past has caught up with the present.
