Henry, a tax resident of Australia, was a famous jazz singer who passed away recently. Jack, a publisher was interested on Henry's life story and wanted to write a bibliography on Henry's life. Jack approached Henry's wife, Jenny (also a tax resident of Australia) to interview her on Henry's life story. She was offered $1 million for Henry story.
