Old flames never die. They just smolder till the right breeze whips them back to life. Lilly Bowman was an old flame Danny Diamond never wanted to see again. But his former mistress (and the widow of his dead partner) comes roaring back into his life when she inherits her husband's stake in Diamond's detective agency. And she aims to make their first case together as deliciously agonizing as possible. A pool boy is found dead at a posh country club, and Diamond takes the job protecting the club's interests during the police investigation.

He’s been sleeping with his partner’s wife. The womanizing detective is a ready-made fall guy for the murder. To make matters worse, the new widow thinks they’re an item now. His secretary is full of “I told you so’s,” the police are knocking on his door, and a vicious pornographer is convinced Diamond has a set of negatives he’s never even heard of.
