The Sugar House

Private Investigator Tess Monaghan is back in Baltimore where she likes to be and beginning to make a name for herself. Then her father asks a favor: to investigate the prison death of a friend's brother, jailed for the killing of an unidentified girl known only as "Jane Doe." Unwillingly, Tess looks into it. She uncovers a trail that leads her to the Sugar House, a brutal institution where Tess uncovers the real identity of "Jane Doe." And now, suddenly, Tess's father is begging her to drop the case. . .
