Yes. Here is the summary.

Explanation:

Summary

Gwen Lake works at the police station, an officer in name only. In practice, she handles all the

detachment’s paperwork due to her affinity for filing and numbers—and because the Chief doesn’t

really believe women are fit to be cops.

Gwen’s husband, Brian, left her a year ago for another woman. Out of the blue, Brian’s new wife,

Marjory, invites Gwen for coffee. When Marjory confesses that Brian has been displaying violent

tendencies towards her, Gwen is stunned. Violent? Doesn’t sound like the guy she spent twentytwo years with. But when a woman of Marjory’s build—and with the same dental records—turns

up dead a few days later, Brian is the prime suspect.

Although she’s still angry over her husband’s infidelity, Gwen refuses to believe that Brian could

have committed such a murder. As if, she thinks; the guy played catch-and-release with flies inside

the house and made his living selling shoes. When Brian is jailed for killing his new wife, Gwen

hauls out her old uniform and gets to work unearthing every possible piece of evidence.

Gwen’s search takes her through Marjory’s past, where each clue points more strongly away

from Brian being the real killer. Gwen speaks with a prior colleague from Marjory’s temp agency,

as well as the agency owner. She talks to the old woman who lives next to the apartment Marjory

kept before she moved in with Brian. She talks to Marjory’s adult son, who stood to gain a healthy

inheritance in the event of his mother’s death. Gwen sleuths through the files of the dental offices

where Marjory worked—and where, it turns out, Marjory recently swapped her own dental X-rays

for those of another woman.

The dead woman? Not Marjory.

Piecing the clues together, Gwen reveals the real “killer”: Marjory and her son, Jason. Marjory

is alive and well…and ready to enjoy a big payout.

When the Chief of Police promotes her to junior detective, Gwen is stunned—but ready for

the next challenge. And when her ex-husband reenters the picture, begging her to take him

back, Gwen realizes both she and Brian need to spend some time apart, thinking about how—or

whether—to move forward together.
