    Perhaps it is a blessing when Jasmine Dent dies in her sleep--at last an end has come to the suffering of a body horribly ravaged by disease.

But small inconsistencies lead her neighbor, Superintendent Duncan Kincaid, to a startling conclusion: Dent was murdered. But if not for mercy, why would someone destroy a life already doomed?
