#1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen explores the
darkest corners of the human heart as forensic sculptor Eve Duncan
closes in on the killer who stole her daughter so many years ago.
As a former Navy SEAL turned cop, Joe Quinn has seen the face of evil
and knows just how deadly it can be. When he first met Eve Duncan, he
never expected to fall in love with a woman whose life would be defined
by her dual desires to bring home her missing daughter and discover the
truth behind her disappearance--no matter how devastating. With the help
of CIA agent Catherine Ling, they make a shocking discovery that sheds
new light on young Bonnie's abduction and puts Quinn squarely in the
crosshairs of danger. Eve's first love, John Gallo, a soldier supposedly
killed in the line of duty, is very much alive--and very much a threat.
Emotionally charged, with one shock after another, Quinn reveals the
electricity of Joe and Eve's first connection, and how they fell in love
in the midst of haunting tragedy. As their search takes them deeper and
deeper into a web of murder and madness, Joe and Eve must confront their
most primal fears . . . and test their resolve to uncover the ultimate
bone-chilling truth.
