There is only one woman brave enough. Newly divorced and separated from her only child, Jenny Cooper trades her job as a hard-pressed family lawyer for the position of Severn Vale Coroner, hoping to rebuild her shattered life. But peace is the last thing she finds. Her very first case in the first book in the series, The Coroner , is that of a young teenage boy found hanged in a privately run prison.
