A dead body is discovered in a locked room in a country house in
the affluent Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C. Nine people were
present in the house at the time, nine people who saw nothing
they'd like to report and did nothing they're willing to confess
to.
A document that might relate to a CIA scandal in the recent
past--or to a presidential election in the near future--is missing,
and much sought after. No one will know exactly what it means until
it's found. But would someone be willing to kill for it?
The key to this complicated puzzle lies with two sisters, two young
women who don't quite fit into Washington's high-stakes political
arena. Retired Foreign Service agent Richard Michaelson and his
friend Marjorie Randolph find themselves at the middle of this
whirlwind of political and personal intrigue, and must do more than
sort clues. For the most challenging locked room you're likely to
encounter in Washington, D.C., is your own mind.
