In this tense, twisty domestic suspense novel from New York Times bestselling author Alexandra Ivy, a woman returns to her sleepy hometown after her fatherβs disappearance and uncovers a dark web of family secrets that leaves her questioning everything. . .
Leaving Canton, Missouri, behind was no hardship for Jesse Hudson. When she was a teenager, her stepmother and stepsister abruptly disappeared under suspicious circumstances. Their bodies were never found, but Jesseβs father, Mac, became a murder suspect. When he too vanished, Jesse waited months for him to return. Finally, she left, bouncing from one bartending job to another for years.
Now Jesse is back, hoping to quickly sell her fatherβs old bar before moving on for good. But coming home to Cantonβs quiet, cobblestone streets doesnβt go quite as expected. There are memories resurfacing, and ties that havenβt broken. Then her fatherβs lawyer makes a startling admission: before he disappeared, Mac had discovered that Jesseβs stepmother, Victoria, was living under an assumed name. βVictoria Hudsonβ never even existed. Who was she really?
Delving deeper, Jesse grows convinced that her fatherβs assumed death is tied to Victoriaβs real identity. And looking to the past is yielding more than secrets. Someone has been waiting for this homecoming, for a chance to unleash revenge for sins real and imagined. And theyβll make sure that Jesse never leaves town again . . .
