“With few clues to launch her inquiry, Vera soon learns that Lisa has been in the middle of a storm both professionally and personally.
“As Vera and the team piece together Lisa’s final movements, Vera must delve deep into her checkered past as well as deal with more recent and potentially deadly problems that Lisa has been up against.
