Jane Lawless is called in for help with the investigation when her father is thinking of petitioning to reopen an old case of his. Gideon Wise was found dead in the bath tub and his husband was sent to prison for murder. Jane investigates and finds out her brother has some unsavoury friends.

All the while I'm wondering why Ray Lawless didn't hire his daughter to investigate during the original trial. There's nothing she found out now she could not have found out at the time.

The story is told from multiple third person perspectives. Which makes for a change from my usual fair, but doesn't improve the mystery for me.

I read an ARC through Netgalley.
