On a bright autumn afternoon in Truro, the Napier family
celebrates one couple’s golden wedding anniversary and
another’s marriage. But for one member of the clan, the
day turns dark. Chris Napier, prodigal son, suddenly spots
the ragged specter of a former friend, Nicky Lanyon—a man
whose own family was ruined by the same twist of fate with
which the Napiers were blessed. And the next morning,
Chris is horrified to find Nicky dead, hanging from a tree
where the boys once played….
For Chris, the suicide
opens a floodgate of doubt and suspicion. How did his
family’s wealth slip out of the hands of a great-uncle,
brutally murdered before he could change his will? Were
the men convicted of the crime truly guilty? And who is
the mysterious, seductive woman who claims to know the
Napiers’ darkest secrets? As the crimes of two families
are exposed, a series of violent acts shadows him and
suddenly Chris knows he’s in uncharted waters…until a
killer drops one last disguise—for the ultimate act of
revenge.
