“Award-winning novelist Martin keeps readers on edge in this gripping tale of tragedy and the subsequent search for truth…. Martin weaves a story that puts the complexities of love on display. Not always sweet or everlasting, love is an immense power that influences our decisions and shapes our futures. Martin's multifaceted tale of loss,suspicion, and suspense is thoroughly engaging.”
