Poppy looked up, her face pale, her hands shaking. What is it, Poppy? Oh my, Rollo, oh my. I think we’ve just struck gold.
Poppy Denby is furious with Rollo, who has gambled away his position at the Daily Globe and is being banished to New York. That is, until she discovers he plans to take her with him to work at the New York Times!

She unravels a sordid trail of illegal immigrants, forced labour, sex scandals, and an unexpected ghost from her past.
Poppy is determined to help the victims, but can she find the evidence to bring the perpetrators to justice without putting her own life in danger…
