About this item

In this debut psychological thriller, two women on opposite sides of the law delve into the heart of a years-old crime in order to stop a future one. Claire Fontaine is convinced that her ex-husband killed their teenage daughter all those years back and believes he's capable of killing again. When she sees him move in with another woman, to play step-father for a girl the same age as the one she lost, Claire tries desperately to warn the new bride of the danger her family is in. But when the woman dismisses her admonishments, she feels she must take matters into her own hands and stop the crime she failed to stop before. Sloane Wilson left the LAPD to work as a "sin eater," a contractor for hire who specializes in cleaning up inconvenient situations -- situations which, for whatever reason, are better handled outside the law.
