Death Benefits

In order for his widow to collect, his suicide must be made to appear an accidental death.

Suddenly, what began as a dull insurance matter turns into chilling, deadly intrigue when Rachel picks up Anderson's treacherous trail. It soon becomes all too clear that Rachel isn't the only one after the lost treasure, but she may be the next one to die for it....
