Synopsis: A Boston lawyer investigates a prep school teacher&’s suspicious suicide in this debut for &“one of the most likeable sleuths to appear on the crime scene&” (The Washington Post Book World). Brady Coyne never meant to become the private lawyer to New England&’s upper crust, but after more than a decade working for Florence Gresham and her friends, he has developed a reputation for discretion that the rich cannot resist. He is fond of Mrs. Gresham—unflappable, uncouth, and never tardy with a check—and he has seen her through her husband&’s suicide and her first son&’s death in Vietnam. But he has never seen her crack until the day her second son, George, leaps into the sea at jagged Charity&’s Point. The authorities call it a suicide, but Mrs. Gresham cannot believe her son, like his father, would take his own life. As Brady digs into the apparently blemish-free past of this upper-class prep school history teacher, he finds dark secrets. George Gresham may not have been suicidal, but that doesn&’t mean he wasn&’t in trouble.
