As a teenager, Jill Shannon fell victim to her stepfather's
cruel abuse. Now, as an adult, Jill's made it-she has a successful
career and a solid, if not static, marriage to Detective Alex
Shannon. Together they live out what seems to be a perfect life in
Seattle.
The vow she made as a teenager to never again be a victim lies
dormant-until one day a reporter lures her to his hotel room under
the pretense of an interview-and suddenly it all comes rushing
back.
Jill seeks revenge on the reporter, triggering a series of
events that leads Jill down a wormhole of retribution, forcing her
to spin an ever-widening web of lies.
Meanwhile, Alex is on the case of a series of murders that began
as cyber relationships. There seems to be a familiar fingerprint on
these crimes, but Alex refuses to believe that the murderer could
be so close to him.
For those who couldn't put down "The Girl with the Dragon
Tattoo" comes a thrilling ride a la "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," where
husband and wife stand on opposite sides of a divide created by
lies and rooted in a dark and deadly past.
