Death Duties (A Port Silva Mystery) - Softcover

Christina Larson's childhood was wrenched awry by the suicide of her beloved grandfather. Now a grown-up Christina has returned to Port Silva, intent on hiring Patience Smith, Investigations - Patience Mackellar and her daughter, Verity - to identify the anonymous callers whose accusations drove Edgar Larson to his death. The Mackellars are initially reluctant to take the case: Patience believing it will only reopen old wounds, Verity seeing success as unlikely and onetime soccer-teammate Chris as disagreeable. Then Verity reads the old man's bitter suicide note: They've left me nothing... I damn them to hell, whoever they are.
