He thinks something Janet uncovered at her job as a geologist for an environmental consulting firm got her killed, and he wants Em to find out what it was. What at first seems like a straightforward case gets more confusing and more dangerous as Em deals with the employees at Janet's old job. Janet's close-mouthed friends, and the increasingly hard-to-get-ahold-of senator. Not to mention the rain, which never seems to stop, or Em's mixed-up family, which is often on her mind when she should be worried about herself. It's enough to make her crazy - if the case doesn't kill her first.Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
