Ex-cop Louis Kincaid is a reluctant Private Eye living in Florida. He’s approached by Ronnie Cade, whose father has just been arrested for the murder of lawyer Spencer Duvall. The thoroughly unlikeable Jack Cade is just out of jail after serving 20 years for the rape and murder of teenage Kitty Jagger and Duvall was Cade’s defense lawyer in that case.

The plot was strong and nicely paced. The murder of Spencer Duvall takes second place to the review of the murder of Kitty Jagger, and the gradual revelation of old, well-buried secrets is fascinating. Sometimes justice and the law can be two totally different concepts.

Kincaid and Jack Cade are really well drawn characters, but some of the supporting cast are a little flat. A good read.
