In a scorching novel of obsession and revenge, New York Times
bestselling author Mary Burton ignites fear in the heart of a woman
targeted by a killer who knows her secrets.
Forensic psychologist and single mother Ann Bailey has joined forces
with Montana Highway Patrol officer Bryce McCabe. An expert in
untangling the motives of depraved minds, Ann is tasked to help solve
the mystery of two murdered women doused with gasoline and set aflame.
It's not hard for Ann to be reminded of the charismatic Elijah Weston,
who served a decade in prison for arson--a crime that nearly cost Ann
her life. Elijah may have been exonerated, but the connection to these
rage killings is impossible for Ann to ignore. One of the victims has
been identified as an obsessed Elijah groupie. Elijah has obsessions,
too. Ever since Ann returned to town, he can't take his eyes off her.
And as a mother with a secret, she's the perfect victim for an
infatuated psychopath.
The deeper Ann and Bryce's investigation goes, the nearer they get to
each other and to danger. After another murder hits close to home, Ann
fears a clue is hidden in her own past. Only one thing terrifies her
more than the reveal of her long-held secret. It's that the secret
itself has put Ann into a killer's line of fire.
