Lonnie Kingman is in a tight spot as he assembles a civil suit, facing a looming statute of limitations. His private investigator has unexpectedly died, leaving him to pursue a case against David Barney, who was acquitted of murdering his wealthy wife, Isabelle, five years ago. Kingman represents Isabelle's ex-husband and child, convinced the jury made a grave error, and he seeks to strip Barney of the profits from the crime. With time running out, Barney maintains his innocence. Kinsey Millhone steps in to continue the investigation, expecting to simply finalize the work of the deceased investigator, Morley Shine. However, she discovers his files are chaotic, key informants unreliable, and witnesses deny ever speaking to him. Surprisingly, Barney's claims check out, raising the question of who truly killed Isabelle. As Kinsey delves deeper, she uncovers a long list of potential suspects, revealing that Isabelle had many enemies. A killer is lurking, watching Kinsey's every move, and the investigation may lead her into dangerous territory, where she could become the next target in a deadly game.
