She was a "Jane Doe": an unidentified white female whose decomposed body was discovered near a quarry off California's Highway 1. After months of investigation, the case remained unsolved. That was 18 years ago. Now, the two men who found the body, both nearing the end of long careers in law enforcement, want one last shot at the case and turn to Kinsey Millhone. Kinsey is intrigued with the challenge and agrees to work with them. But revisiting the past can be a dangerous business, and what begins with the pursuit of Jane Doe's real identity ends in a high-risk hunt for her killer.
