Nurse Jenny Martin is found dead in a burned-out car. It looks like she was strangled and beaten to death before being unceremoniously crammed into the boot. The police believe Nick `the Ace- Fenny to be the chief suspect. At nineteen years old, he has a reputation for being a joyrider and troublemaker. But Nick-s mum refuses to believe her son-s a murderer and seeks out Kate to help clear his name. In no position to be turning down work, Kate accepts her offer and takes the victim-s old job to find out who else might have a motive for killing. But then another employee dies in suspicious circumstances - it seems this practice is deadly. Can Kate and her eccentric friend and landlord, undertaker Hubert, catch the real killer before it-s too late?
