Sloane McBride returns home to the small town in Texas where she grew up. She is determined to find out exactly what happened to her mother who went missing when Sloane was five-years-old. Sloane has memories of that night, and believes her powerful and politically connected father murdered her mother. But when she returns home, she is confronted with more than just a murder investigation. She has to deal with her estranged father and brother as well as her high school boyfriend. She has worked hard to forget him. But, much to her regret, she finds she still loves him.

Brenda Novak, once again, does not disappoint with this story. The characters are complex, and the description of small-town life and attitudes is right on. The story has twists and turns that keep you reading, and it is far from predictable throughout.
