From the bestselling author of the DI Bliss series comes an enthralling mystery thriller.
The truth can set you free — or bury you.

While having to work through her own personal grief, Sydney is openly intimidated and receives anonymous threats. After discovering she is under surveillance, she begins to fear for her life. During her investigation she gains several allies, but as the days pass, Sydney doesn't know who to trust, and which new friends might actually turn out to be foes...
