Seventeen years ago, Morgan Winter stumbled upon her
parents' brutally murdered bodies. Intense counseling and
the love of her adopted family has enabled Morgan to live a
fairly successful life. The recent announcement by the
police that her parents' killer is not behind bars, as
believed, but is still loose, shakes Morgan to the core.
She hires former detective Montgomery "Monty" to review the
cold case and find clues to the killer.
Monty was never convinced that the police had caught the
right man. Determined to uncover the truth, he enlists the
aid of his son, Lane, a photojournalist with law
enforcement experience, to assess the crime photos and do a
photo interpretation and image enhancement. When Lane meets
Morgan for the first time, he finds a combination of
fragility and strength that draws him to her. Lane sees not
only a vulnerable young woman, but also a woman with
courage and inner strength to survive any crisis.
Rehashing the memories from that horrifying time brings old
nightmares to the surface for Morgan. However, when
accidents and suspicious incidents occur, she realizes the
killer is close. And she will risk everything to find her
parents' killer.
New York Times bestselling author Andrea Kane
returns to the Montgomery family for a riveting new
romantic suspense. This tale explores the dynamics of
loyalty and friendships when tested by lies and eventually
murder.
Seventeen years ago, Morgan Winter was traumatized by the
discovery of her parents' brutally murdered bodies in a
Brooklyn basement on Christmas Eve. Now shocking new
evidence overturns the killer's conviction and Morgan is
confronted with the horrifying realization that the real
killer is still out there.
Trapped in an emotional hell, she hires Pete "Monty"
Montgomery, the former NYPD detective who first
investigated her parents' homicides. Now a PI, Monty has a
personal score to settle—a promise he made to Morgan, the
helpless child long ago, that he'd find her parents'
killer. With nothing more than an old case file and the
original crime scene photos, Monty enlists the specialized
skills of his son, Lane, a photojournalist whose job is a
perfect cover for the clandestine image analysis he
conducts for the CIA. Constantly thrill-seeking, Lane is
used to gambling and putting his own life on the line—for
country, for journalistic integrity, for the adrenaline
rush. But this time, the stakes are different . . . and
this time, he can't afford to lose.
The murderer is still at large and has never stopped
watching Morgan from the shadows, making sure a dark secret
remains buried. Now, Morgan's fierce determination to
uncover the truth consumes her, plunging her into the dark
and terrifying past and an increasingly dangerous present.
Lane is closing in on the truth. But in a cruel twist of
fate, what he exposes may be far more shocking and
devastating to Morgan than anyone could imagine.
