It has been many years since the mayhem was unleashed in Privileged
Information. Now Michael McClelland, the brilliant, determined murderer
introduced in the first Alan Gregory novel, has left the Colorado State
Mental Hospital - and he's coming after Alan's family. The timing
couldn't be deadlier; like a wounded animal, Alan is in a deeply
vulnerable state, facing severe doubts about his professional life, his
marriage, and his own psyche. And McClelland holds the most powerful
weapons of all: secrets from Alan's past. Secrets Alan thought he had
successfully buried years ago. Secrets not even his wife knows. Time is
running out as Alan scrambles to outwit his nemesis while confronting
each of his worst nightmares. His becomes a captivating psychological
journey into the events that forever change us, and the relentless
drumbeat of the past. This searing view into the doctor's heart leaves
us with a haunting question: How far will someone go to protect all that
they know and love?
