β¦ Synopsis
"The apparent suicide of a beautiful aspiring law student unites two strangers, connected only by their tangled suspicions: that nothing about Margaux Stritch's tragic end is what it looks like ... Firefighter Jessica Blythe is courageously making her mark in the male-dominated Chicago Fire Department while navigating a complicated relationship with a detective. A first responder to the crime scene, Jessica has a professional duty to Margaux. Then there's Kirsten Holloway, a wife and mother pulling herself together after an emotional breakdown. But her husband's infidelity has left her in a place full of mistrust and fear. Her dreaded curiosity about Margaux's death has become very personal. Two women are about to converge on a trail of blackmail, secrets, troubled pasts, and hidden shadows, where violence and desire entwine, unchecked. And they're not the only ones stepping into the dark. Someone else is following. But is it to warn Jessica and Kirsten? Or to usher them into a nightmare?"--Publisher.
