In a small town where gossip is traded as currency, Lennon’s instincts about whom to trust will be put to the ultimate test as she seeks the truth about where she came from and just what secrets the old inn is hiding.

Miles away, Ingrid’s husband is lying.

At least his cryptic behavior would suggest he is.

Determined to get to the bottom of his suspicious activity, Ingrid partners with a stranger to test him. But when the woman who meets her husband for the setup suddenly vanishes, Ingrid finds herself buried beneath more questions than she started with.

Settle in for a heart-pounding, read-in-one-sitting domestic suspense packed with menacing secrets, catastrophic revelations, and a terrifying search for answers alongside two women who will leave no stone unturned.
