Maggie Marshall is a former teacher and widow who enlists her three trusted friends to help uncover a grave injustice. The four unlikely sleuths aided by capable San Diego detectives embark on a perilous undertaking involving unknown risks, intrigue, deception, devotion, and murder.

During a thirty-year period, more than a million Marines and their families became subjected to extremely high industrial solvents, benzene, and other toxic chemicals in their drinking and bathing water on Marine Corps Base Camp McCabe, South Carolina. As a result, they developed serious illnesses that led to premature deaths. Maggie’s husband was one of those victims.

Therefore, Maggie feels compelled to risk it all on this arduous journey to hold someone – anyone – accountable for this travesty of justice. But suddenly, the road to equity becomes dangerous and deadly.
