Summary:
Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege, Abandoned by her
rebellious mother when she was an infant, she was the only child of a
rich man already in his mid-fifties when she was born, and her
adoring father thoroughly spoiled her. Now, at thirty-two, having had
many scrapes with the law, she is about to be released on probation
from the California Institution for Women, having served twenty-two
months of a four-year sentence for embezzlement. Though Nord Lafferty
could deny his daughter nothing, he wasn't there for her when she was
brought up on this charge. Now he wants to be sure she stays
straight, stays at home and away from drugs, the booze, the gamblers.
It seems a straightforward assignment for Kinsey: babysit Reba until
she settles in, make sure she follows all the niceties of her parole.
Maybe a week's work. Nothing untoward - the woman seems remorseful
and friendly. And the money is good. But life is never that simple,
and Reba is out of prison less than twenty-four hours when one of her
old crowd comes circling around.
