'FOR the first time in her life, Jean Marley was happy. Her marriage to Frank Nicholson had offered her a clean break from her past with all its tawdry associations. Then one day she received a phone call from an old acquaintance—part of the life she had wanted to forget. He offered a proposition whose dividends were murder.'
