Crime journalist Emma Richardson believes she’s happily married. Her husband is gentle, devoted, and safe.
When Emma’s college ex, Cole Sutton, reappears after ten years, he’s no longer just the brilliant, obsessive man she escaped. He’s a tech billionaire under suspicion for his wife’s brutal murder and still fixated on Emma.
Convinced Emma’s husband isn’t who she thinks he is, Cole leverages his influence to push a detective to reopen a cold case. A family was slaughtered twenty-five years ago. One child survived and was placed in the Witness Protection Program.
Now, chilling evidence suggests that child may be Emma’s husband. Worse, he may not only have survived the murders. He may have committed them.
As obsession closes in and her marriage begins to crack, Emma is caught between two men.
One is hiding a secret dark enough to destroy everything she’s built.
The other is willing to dismantle her marriage and her sense of self until returning to him feels like the only way to survive.
