Sick to Death (Perennial Library #2)

Detective Chief Inspector Masters and his aide Detective Inspector Green confront one of their most heartbreaking investigations when they peruse the material from the file on a recent victim. They study the photo of a pretty girl in a tennis dress, with a beautiful smile, and fair hair across her eyes. The cause of death was a diabetic coma. The insulin in the bottle was useless but not toxic -- which amounts to the same thing with a diabetic. Masters and Green commence a review of a life where they find admiration, affection, and even love for the golden girl who had once taken her disability in stride.
