Private investigator Jesse Clarke thought sugar was such an innocent substance until it turned up in two of her cases for totally the wrong reasons.
Traces of sugar were found in a bomb that blew up her client's Mercedes. Was the bomb meant to kill or was it just a warning?
And then, could sugar have duped the immune system of a client's mother over thirty ago, resulting in death?
Juggling the two cases—one in the present and one in the past—Jesse finds herself talking to the living and the dead to get results.
