The Marine Corpse

Past mistakes lead to present problems and murder...Maddalena D'Angelo is no stranger to helping people, but when an early morning visitor comes to her door looking for help it's the last person she would expect... Chief Alvin DeRoche. He has made it clear in the past that he does not care for Maddalena's assistance, however, this time it's different. This time it's personal. An old friend of his has been murdered! Maddalena can't say no and agrees to help him but her eccentric sort-of-friend, Vicki Rayne, is insistent that she does not investigate this murder. What is that all about? Can Maddalena help DeRoche solve this murder and uncover the truth?  Should she even get involved?
