Realising his prime suspect has cause to hate him and his friends, Ryan must act quickly to prevent further bloodshed. Moreover, an escalation by the serial killer may uncover a dark secret that the township--and Ryan--would rather leave buried.

Only happenstance many years later alters that decision.Were life simply about the present and not unduly influenced by an evil family legacy, Samuel would not be drawn inexorably toward his destiny. It will require all his instincts and courage to bring the woman he loves beyond measure home safely.

Not a self-help book. Not a hand-holding Kumbaya singing, good-feeling therapy attempt. Not an effort to give evidence of expertise in anything other than failure.
