For the past fifteen months, American Liz Moretti has lived and worked in a small English town located on the River Thames. Then, one beautiful summer morning, her life goes spinning out of control. The body of Tony Almington, her business partner in Almington's Accounting & Secretarial, is found in the trunk of her car and Liz is arrested on suspicion of murder. Between the company's current financial woes and Tony's refusal to pull his weight, the British police are convinced Liz had all the necessary means, motivation and opportunity to commit the crime. To make matters worse, they've been in touch with the Las Vegas Sheriff's Department and know this isn't her first brush with a suspicious death.

Liz believes someone is trying to frame her. She has no idea who, and she has no idea why. But if she doesn't figure things out really fast, she could find herself on trial for murder...
