註釋A terminally ill man sells his life insurance policy to an investor who will collect the full amount of the policy when the sick man dies. But is the sick man really sick? Does he even exist? Carver Hartnett, Miranda Pryor and Leonard Stillmach all work for Reliable Allied Trust in Omaha, where they investigate insurance scams. Carver is frustrated by his work - because his company would rather raise premiums than prosecute criminals - and by the provocative Miranda, who seems to have something monstrous to hide. When their friend, crazy Lenny, dies during a computer game, a strange narrative unfolds around a possible murder and a huge insurance fraud. With their careers - and their lives - at stake, Carver and Miranda end up investigating their own actions, and the secrets that lie behind them.
