Mystery Private Eye | Romance Suspense
Twenty-one-year-old Claire Bannister has just been released
from a Florida mental hospital, where she spent over three
years on the forensics unit for arson and murder-crimes to
which she pled "not guilty by reason of insanity." The
trouble is, Claire's innocent. She knows who really set the
house fire that killed her siblings on that balmy night in
Pensacola, but she can't tell. And she knows that her
stepmother and lifelong nemesis, Sisley, will be watching
her every move. Sisley never believed that Claire set the
fire that killed her children, and now Sisley will stop at
nothing to get to the truth. Claire flees to Tampa, unaware
that Sisley is having her followed. Claire is on a mission
to find her boyfriend, Billy Powers, who disappeared the
night of the fire with a briefcase full of cash extorted
from Claire's powerful father, Judge Oren Bannister. Will
Billy still have in his possession the one item that Claire
must get back from him? Confronted by one dead end after
another, Claire finally marries Richard Quenell, a handsome
and wealthy attorney with a few secrets of his own. Claire
conceals her past from her new husband, a decision that has
disastrous results. When Claire, Sisley, Billy and Richard
finally square off, the consequences will be devastating,
and Claire will be faced with a decision that could change
her life-again.
