Book description
When medical examiner Sara Linton and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver
take a trip away from the small town of Heartsdale, it should be a
straightforward weekend at the beach. But they decide to take a detour
via Jeffrey's hometown and things go violently wrong when Jeffrey's
best friend Robert shoots dead an intruder who breaks into his home.
Jeffrey and Sara are first on the scene and Jeffrey's keen to clear
his friend's name, but for Sara things aren't so simple. And when
Jeffrey appears to change the crime scene, Sara no longer knows who to
trust.
Twelve years later, Sara and Jeffrey are caught up in a shockingly
brutal attack which threatens to destroy both their lives. But they're
not random victims. They've been targeted. And it seems the past is
catching up with both of them ...
