The medical people can find no cause of death nor a time. With no cause the case is given to Inspector Strong. After days of review the have Sally Bird's history. She was working on an IPO to be issued. She is a junior but doing a good job. She started asking for original documents usually not needed for an IPO. The IPO is valued at $200 million.
