You'll never see the twist coming in this gripping novel of love and
loss by bestselling author Christina McKenna.
Rita-Mae has lived in fear for as long as she can remember. Fear of
being alone, fear of her past and, above all, fear of her husband,
Harry. Until she spots an advertisement for a vacant cottage in a small
town in Northern Ireland. She makes her escape filled with hope, ready
to start a new life in a new home, free from the pain of her past. But
her place of refuge may not be as safe--or as anonymous--as she thought.
In another small town, Dorrie wakes up unaware of where she is or how
she got there. Adrift in a world for which she has no explanation, she
needs to find answers quickly--before her shadowy past catches up with
her.
Walled in by secrets and with no one to trust, both Rita-Mae and Dorrie
are unsure how to move forward. Can each woman face her inner demons and
confront a menacing presence from the past once and for all? Or will the
past unravel their second chance at life?
