The bestselling author of Somebody's Daughter and Cemetery Girl,
"one of the brightest and best crime fiction writers of our time"
(Suspense Magazine) delivers a pulse-pounding thriller about a man who
is haunted by a face from his past...
When Nick Hansen sees the young woman at the grocery store, his heart
stops. She's the spitting image of his college girlfriend, Marissa
Minor, who died in a campus house fire twenty years earlier. But when
Nick tries to speak to her, she acts skittish and rushes off.
The next morning the police arrive at Nick's house and show him a photo
of the woman from the store. She's been found dead, murdered in a local
motel, with Nick's name and address on a piece of paper in her pocket.
Convinced there's a connection between the two women, Nick enlists the
help of his college friend Laurel Davidson to investigate the events
leading up to the night of Marissa's death. But the young woman's murder
is only the beginning...and the truths Nick uncovers may make him wish
he never doubted the lies.
