New York Times-bestselling author Tilly Bagshawe continues the
enduring legacy of beloved suspense author Sidney Sheldon with a new
tale of glamour, suspense, and unexpected twists
A young American au pair, Charlotte Clancy, vanishes without a trace in
Mexico City. The case is left cold, but its legacy will be devastating.
A decade later, LA is shaken by a spate of violent murders. Psychologist
Nikki Roberts is the common link between the victims, her patients at
the heart of this treacherous web. When someone makes an attempt on
Nikki's life, it's clear she is a marked woman.
Nikki makes a living out of reading people, drawing out their secrets,
but the key to this shocking pattern eludes her. With the police at a
dead end Nikki drafts in Derek Williams, a PI who isn't afraid to put
his hand into the hornet's nest. Williams was thwarted in the notorious
Charlotte Clancy case all those years ago, but what he unearths in
LA--and the mention of one name in particular--leaves him cold, and
takes him on a dangerous path into the past.
A shadowy manipulator has brought his deadly game to the streets of LA.
In a crime spanning generations, it seems Nikki Roberts knows all too
much--and a ruthless killer knows the price of her silence.
In this crooked city, where enemies and friends are one and the same,
Nikki must be the master of her own escape...
