About this item
Husbands and wives. Mothers and daughters. The past and the future.Secrets bind them. And secrets can destroy them.With the discovery of a murder at an abandoned construction site, Will Trent and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation are brought in on a case that becomes much more dangerous when the dead man is identified as an ex-cop.Studying the body, Sara Linton - the GBI's newest medical examiner and Will's lover - realizes that the extensive blood loss didn't belong to the corpse. Bloody footprints leading away from the scene indicate there is another victim - a woman - who has vanished ... and who will die soon if she isn't found.Will is already compromised, because the site belongs to the city's most popular citizen: a wealthy, powerful, and politically connected athlete - a man who's already gotten away with rape, despite Will's exhaustive efforts to put him away.
