To make matters worse, newspapers are now sidelining her reporting talents to prioritise jobs for returning soldiers.Determined to take control of her future, she reopens her late father's private investigation agency, and, slowly, clients come knocking.At first, Billie's work consists of tailing cheating husbands But when a young man goes missing, Billie finds herself on a dangerous new trail that will lead her to the highest levels of society, and down into its underworld.As the risk mounts, Billie realises that there is much more than one man's life at stake.
