On the brink of falling for a man she met on the Internet,
Dr. Rita Brooks naively assumes Brian LaPort is everything
he says he is... and all that she's hoped for. But before
she can come face to face with him, Rita is nearly killed in
a horrific accident. Or was it an accident at all?

Emerging at last from a disturbing, vision-plagued coma,
Rita is confronted by a stranger who is convinced she knows
more than she's telling about her own past-and his
brother's. Cryptic e-mail records have led Christopher
LaPorte to Rita while Brian lies near death in New Orleans
from a suicide attempt. Or was it?

Desperate to unlock her own muddled memories as well as
Brian's secrets, Rita returns with Christopher to New
Orleans. There, amidst the chaotic revelry of Mardi Gras,
she is plunged into a bizarre masquerade where elaborate
masks cleverly conceal familiar faces-as well as murderous
intent...
