Ed Eagle - another Stuart Woods attorney who gets involved in solving a criminal case - this time with his wife. Eagle wakes up one morning very groggy - wondering where his wife is. She's skipped town - only after liquidating his stock portfolio and emptying his bank accounts.  Too bad for Barbara, Ed woke up before the trade deal went through before the stock liquidation (and he should probably get a new broker - since his current one executed the liquidation of his entire portfolio based on a fax from his wife - that should have caused some alarm bells to go off)
The story centers on the two PIs that Ed hires to track down Barbara to get her to sign divorce papers. They travel to Mexico - following her from town to town - evading Mexican police who are after her for a murder that happened a few years ago. The two PIs catch up to Barbara - and on their way back to the United States - she unsuccessfully tries to get rid of one of the PIs. She tries as hard as she can to forge a new life as a new person - but Ed is too smart for her - well - he hired the right PIs. 
It's typical Woods - moves quickly and keeps your interest.
