There's a new twist to this murder with a Washington setting, as island happy Marines review the case at long distance and set up a lottery, putting money on their choices of victims. Newspaper clippings provide the springboard; a former employee of the murderer gives further details on possible victims, motives and opportunities, involving high pressure politics, embattled career women, booster publicity schemes, and a dog-eat-dog philanthropic organisation.
