Yet she's had no life since her lover's murder, walking into the bar alone, believing she doesn't care why. She's been trained by the best. She is the best, yet she's made a fatal error that will not be forgiven by Mother.The woman seated beside her is a cop. Dina Becker knows why the strangely alluring young woman has come to her city. She now knows who killed Charlie Preston, and she knows why. Now Miranda has no choice. All that matters is Pearl.
