"The death of shady businessman William Price during what seems to be a bizarre sexual experiment in auto-asphyxia begins the unravelling of a web of deceit, fraud, drug abuse, and domestic violence. Detective John McLeish is distracted by having to work with an old flame whilst his usually supremely confident wife Francesca, currently volunteering at a refuge for women escaping violent partners, finds herself attracted to a new flame. The biggest threat posed by the investigation just might be collateral damage to McLeish's marriage."-- cover page [4].
