Last Day, First Day

Quincy und Sam können es nicht verstehen: Zwei Blutproben von derselben Leiche ergeben unterschiedliche Befunde. In der einen Blutprobe ist Kokain enthalten, die andere ist drogenfrei. Die Untersuchung hat der erfahrene Pathologe Dr. Moore vorgenommen. Hat er sich geirrt oder einen Fehler gemacht? Oder will er gar einen Mord vertuschen? Das behauptet auf jeden Fall die Medizinstudentin Harriet Bolin. Quincy lässt es sich nicht nehmen, den Fall ganz genau zu untersuchen und das Rätsel zu lösen.

A lawyer, who also was a small time coke dealer, is murdered by a group of crooks who inject him with a lethal dose of cocaine. The killers then try to make it look like an accident by putting him in his car and having it drive off the road and explode. However, the plan goes awry when the victim is thrown from the car before it explodes. The killers then blackmail the son of one of Quincy's colleagues to try to get him to get his father to fix the autopsy so that there is no trace of cocaine in his system. When Quincy finds out what happens he tries not only to save his friend's reputation, but possibly his life.
