Book Synopsis

Her husband died in a plane crash on Mount Blanc. It was a tragic accident.

These are the simple facts.


Except someone''s not telling the truth . . .


After nine months of sorrow and grief, Junie Lagarde - a brilliant forensic accountant and passionate guitarist - is gradually accepting life without her beloved husband Olivier, a French safety consultant and climate-change expert, whom she lost in a tragic plane accident over Mont Blanc. If only she could have found her loyal hearing-dog Leo, who ran off in the terrifying aftermath of the crash, before she had to return home to America. But then Junie receives an unexpected call from France . . .

Capitaine Philippe Brevard, the man in charge of investigating Olivier''s death, has seen recent CCTV footage which shows Leo being held by a man who closely resembles Olivier . . . right down to his distinctive jacket.

It''s not Olivier. It can''t be . . . c
