Haunted by black magic, ruthless human
traffickers, and her own personal demons, a psychotherapist
must cross a deadly line in order to save her new patient in
this searing novel of psychological
suspense.
Madeleine Frank knows all too
well that it's impossible to recover from some losses. She
herself has escaped devastating heartbreak, fleeing her
native Key West to begin life anew in the ancient city of
Bath. But Madeleine's demons have never left her and may, in
fact, be closer than ever -- in the mad visions of her
mother, formerly a priestess of Santeria, the mysterious
Afro-Cuban religion. Rachel Locklear appears in her office
seeking therapy, but Madeleine becomes increasingly troubled
by the history of this hostile, damaged young woman. As the
relationship with her new patient deepens, Madeleine
discovers that Rachel's childhood eerily echoes her own
darkest secret. Reluctant to act unprofessionally and risk
having Rachel walk out of her life forever, Madeleine keeps
her suspicions to herself. But Madeleine is unaware of
sinister forces gathering strength in her patient's life. On
the run from her ruthless partner -- a man who will stop at
nothing to control her and her son -- Rachel is desperate to
keep her child safe from his father's dangerous
"associates." Finally she has no choice but to involve the
only person she can trust in a murderous web of revenge and
deception. From the tropical lushness of Key West to the
imposing Georgian streets of Bath two women and their
painful pasts collide dangerously with Cuban sorcery,
prostitution, and coldhearted murder -- culminating in a
tale as terrifying as it is compelling.
