On the surface, Gaby Parker has it all; however, behind closed doors, is a woman who lives in constant fear of the man who was supposed to love her: her husband, Kyle. Beaten, desperate, and broken, Gaby realizes the only way to escape from her violent husband is to kill herself - on paper. Gaby is dead, and Riley Locklin is born, residing in the tranquil coastal town of Chesswick Bay Montauk where she hopes to start over and meets a man who shows her bruises aren't kisses. Meanwhile, back home, Kyle is doing everything in his power to prove Gaby isn't dead. But... police find her burnt-out car and remains? Kyle isn't buying it; he knows she's still alive. He launches his own investigation to find his wife - and he'll stop at nothing to claim her back. A female Detective assigned to his wife's case doesn't like him very much after discovering a domestic violence report - scorned by the history of her mother's domestic abuse, she's determined to send Kyle down for his wife's murder. And then he finds her. Will Gaby finally take a stand?
