In this 11th VI Warsahwski book, Vic investigates a life insurance claim that was paid out prematurely before a man's death. When he dies, it leaves a mystery as to why the claim was paid out and where the money went. The insurance company has other bigger problems when different groups try to get reparations for people insured during the Holocaust and American slavery. When the issues begin to involve her friend Lotty Herschel, the cases merge as one and a man claiming to be related to a mysterious Sofie Radbuka, whom Lottie knew once. Can VI figure out this man's identity and solve the insurance mystery before her friend gets hurt?

VI is still plucky and tenacious, but all the parts don't fit together in a compelling story in this book.
