This sequel to The Body of Christopher Creed finds college reporter Mike Mavic avidly following each new lead in the previous book's case. When a body is found, Mike sets off to investigate. Some suspension of disbelief is necessary (would a police chief really hand over evidence to an amateur reporter?), but the story rewards readers by solving its mysteries, including Christopher Creed's fate.
