A thrilling new book from the #1 New York Times bestselling author
of No Way Out, that fans of Nora Roberts and Rachel Caine won't want
to miss! One woman's picture-perfect island sanctuary reveals itself to
be filled with dangers in this exciting page-turner...**
At twenty-nine, Alison Marshall is ready to find a place to call home.
With no family and no ties, she's drifted from one small Florida town to
another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a
nest egg. Once she finds the right place to settle down, she'll know.
And when she reaches beautiful Palmetto Island, she thinks she may have
found it.
The small, close-knit island community seems to have everything Alison
needs. On a hunch, she contacts the island's only realtor, and learns
that an old beach house is on the market. Miraculously, it's in her
budget, and Alison takes it as another sign that she's in the right
place.
At first, home is everything she hoped it would be. But as days turn
into weeks, she uncovers a dark side to this supposedly peaceful haven.
The locals have a secret, and once Alison discovers what it is, she
faces a stark choice. She can stay and join them--or escape. But leaving
brings its own risks, and Alison is starting to wonder if coming to
Palmetto Island is the last mistake she'll ever make . . .
