Maxine Revere has dedicated her life to investigating
murders that the police have long since given up any hope of
solving. A nationally renowned investigative reporter with
her own TV show and a tough-as-nails reputation, Max tackles
cold cases from across the country and every walk of life.
But the one unsolved murder that still haunts her is a case
from her own past.
When Max was a high school senior, one of her best friends
was strangled and another, Kevin O'Neal, accused of the
crime. To the disgrace of her wealthy family, Max stood by
her friend, until she found out he lied about his alibi.
Though his guilt was never proven, their relationship
crumbled from the strain of too many secrets.
Now Max is home for Kevin's funeral-after years of drug
abuse, he committed suicide. She's finally prepared to come
to terms with the loss of his friendship, but she's not
prepared for Kevin's sister to stubbornly insist that he
didn't kill himself. Or for an elderly couple to accost her
at the airport, begging her to look into another murder at
Max's old high school. Max is more interested in the cold
case at her alma mater than in digging around Kevin's
troubled life, but she agrees to do both. As Max uncovers
dark secrets, she finds herself caught in a complicated web
of lies that hit far too close to home. And it's becoming
increasingly clear that someone will do whatever it takes to
make sure the truth stays buried.
