In the shadowy world of insurance fraud and forensic intrigue, Richard ""Slick"" Clark is the man you call when the stakes are high and the truth is buried deep. A sharp-witted investigator for Sterling Insurance, Slick has seen it all-blackmail, counterfeiting, murder, and more. But nothing could prepare him for the Claim of the Fleshless Corpse. When a wealthy socialite, Allen Brown, is found burned to death in the furnace room of his Westbrook Hills mansion, the case seems like a tragic accident. But Slick's instincts scream foul play.
