About this ebook
DC Smith’s job is put on the line when a woman’s insurance company hires him to confirm that her missing husband is no longer alive—so her second husband can cash in on a hefty insurance claim.
Jo told him the phone call had been about a woman who wanted to have her husband declared dead. DC Smith is called by a woman named Amanda Fitch who wants to have her husband declared dead, but there's no body, no proof of death, and Smith does not want to get involved.
But on this occasion, Smith will have to investigate. The insurance company, which will have to pay out a very substantial amount of money if Amanda Fitch obtains her certificate of presumed death, has engaged Diver and Diver Associates to look into the disappearance of Gerald Fitch—more than five years ago now. As Jason Diver says, he has the very man for the job. All he has to do is to persuade that man to take it on.
