On her wedding night, seventeen-year-old
Anna Langtry stole her husband’s car
and fled into the darkness, racing toward
freedom. She felt only desperation to
escape the nightmare of her Colorado
home-an isolated rural community that
condoned her forced polygamous
marriage to become one man’s third wife.
Fifteen years later, Anna is working as a federal
probation officer in Denver. A fighter for the
underdog, even she cannot escape the cynicism
of her profession. She doesn’t expect much
from her newest parolee, just the usual sob
story about being innocent and misunderstood.
But Joe Mackenzie is different.
A white-collar criminal convicted of
embezzlement, Joe is tough, quiet, determined
and innocent. Now he’s looking for justice. And
he’s about to pull Anna into his world, one that
will lead her back to the past she’d left behind-one that will reach out to ensnare them both in
its dangerous secrets and deadly schemes, where
the passion between them is threatened by the
grim reach of murder.
