Skeletons in the closet

Eugène Tarpon is back to sleeping in his office and waiting for a job that pays. Then he gets a call from an old contact in the police. A distant relative of his - a polite, persistent widow - wants someone to look into her daughter's disappearance. The police have already given up. No leads, no hope, no point. Just take the case, take her money, and keep her busy. Tarpon's too broke to refuse, and too much of a gentleman to brush her off. But the story doesn't sit right. And when something smells off, he can't help but start digging.
