About this item
He stole her childhood . . . she'll take his futureSomething happened, she didn't know what, something spun, the world turning, back, back, too fast. She would be sick. Bridget put out a hand to steady herself against the wall.Bridget has a secret -- one she keeps from everyone, even her husband. One that threatens to explode when her childhood music teacher, Carmichael, walks into her dress shop. With him is a young girl on the cusp of adulthood, fresh-faced and pretty. She reminds Bridget of herself at that age, nave and vulnerable. Bridget wants him away -- away from her, away from that girl. But Carmichael won't leave her alone, won't stop stalking her. And Bridget's not a little girl anymore. When he pushes her too far, she snaps. But what she thought was a decisive act only unravels more insidious threats -- more than she could have ever imagined -- and from which no one is safe, not even her family.
