His buried past is the key to finding a killer, but it may destroy them first...
Kyra Gibson, former London lawyer turned columnist, is having a tough summer. Her partner, forensic profiler Tarek Collins, barely survived his last case. He's home and healing but is a ghost of the man he was.
When the mutilated body of a local hero is discovered in a Martha's Vineyard lighthouse, the island turns to Tarek and Kyra for help. With Tarek pulling back, Kyra attempts to assist in the investigation without him, working instead with a local police officer, but nothing goes right. Evidence is lost. Witnesses disappear. An arsonist sets a fire. Without Tar, Kyra's over her head but too stubborn to quit.
Everywhere she turns, she's ensnared by corruption, lies, and secrets—even Tarek is hiding something. Then Kyra is attacked and taken, forcing Tarek to confront his dark past and worst fear.
In this gripping fifth installment of the Martha's Vineyard Murders series, Tarek's demons could make Kyra pay the ultimate price.
