Priceless

In the Channel Islands, literally nothing ever happens. Right? Now it does: among the lovely villages, historic castles, stunning rock formations and tranquil beaches, a seedy association of gambling real estate investors is spinning a lucrative web with deadly consequences.

Channel waves spit the body of a dead woman on a freighter. British agents Will Carrick and Jeff Purdy find no clue as to who she might be. The only thing she is carrying is a sodden cell phone. On it is a selfie of the woman, posing on Alderney's Hanging Rock. Carrick and Purdy conclude that she fell off this rock and into The Channel. They turn the case over to the Channel Islands police. Agent Inèz Lovatt, who has her own problems, is tasked with finding out the identity of the dead woman. With the photograph as her only piece of evidence, she bites into the investigation. She ends up in Normandy, where the underworld of international real estate investors meets in a bunker. Risking her own life, and that of her best friend, Inèz sets out to find the truth that has painful ties to her past.
