The twelfth book in the popular Detective Inspector Carol Ashton crime series.
When a law enforcement officer dies under highly suspicious circumstances, it sounds like a perfect case for Australian Detective Inspector Carol Ashton . . . too bad she's the suspect.
Attending a rigorous FBI training course in the United States, she feels a little out of her element - but is she out of her league as well? After a bitter argument with an instructor, Carol is shocked to find herself accused of murder. Framed, friendless and far from home, she soon discovers that her only ally is a female FBI agent with a not-so-hidden agenda. But will there be time to find the real killer as the evidence against Carol mounts and the clock ticks down on her career, her freedom . . . and her life?
