Driscoll Lake

Some people take secrets to the grave...Three years after her husband's murder, Christine Lawrence still struggles for balance. She has a rewarding career and a close circle of friends but feels oddly unfulfilled. Worse, the close relationship she once had with her teenage daughter has grown increasingly strained. Former FBI agent, Vince Green, is battling demons of his own-painful secrets that drove him from Driscoll Lake. Newly resettled in the small town, he makes his living as a private investigator. When Vince and Christine cross paths, stumbling over the body of a murder victim, he's forced to confront memories he thought long buried. The circumstances surrounding the killing are eerily similar to a victim from his past. As the body count continues to rise, Christine finds herself drawn to Vince. With a murderer stalking the streets of Driscoll Lake, neither is aware the killer has targeted her as the next victim-or that Vince's past is key to unmasking a disturbed and deadly killer.

If you can't stand the heat...Rachel Jackson hails from one of Driscoll Lake's wealthiest families. Like her father, she became a doctor and is now a respected physician. But despite her successful career, Rachel feels something is missing from her life-until she crosses paths with Brian Nichols. The son of a hard-working mother and alcoholic father, Brian acted out when he was young, earning a reputation as a troublemaker. As an adult, he's worked hard to clean up his act and now owns a burgeoning construction company. Rachel and Brian form an unlikely friendship which begins to blossom into something more. But a series of structure fires-determined to be arson-puts Brian in the hot seat. The properties are all associated with his work, making him the prime suspect. Toss in his juvenile history, and he finds himself the focus of a tenacious investigator. Even Rachel starts to have doubts. Brian struggles to save his relationship, his company, and his reputation. But unless the real arsonist is caught before striking again, everything Brian holds dear may go up in smoke.
