Forensic expert Jessie Teska gets hauled from her bed in the early hours to handle an accidental death on a building site, which turns into a suspected homicide, fast. The victim is high profile, as are the suspects and the investigation soon has high powered lawyers lining up to take on an insurance company who are dragging their feet on paying out on life insurance policies.
Jessie is juggling her new position and workload as Deputy ME with her fledgling relationship with lawyer Anup. Complicating things are a very pushy reporter, combative cops, her friend Sparkle's missing Uncle and the widow of the deceased- who may be crying crocodile tears.
What no one is prepared for - including the ME’s office - is a devastating earthquake. And the aftershocks from the quake will not just upend the state, they’ll put Jessie and those she cares about the most in danger.
