The investigation takes a shocking turn when fingerprints at the scene link back to Genevieve, casting suspicion on her as both victim and accused. Is she capable of killing her son to escape motherhood, or is she spiraling into madness? Furthermore, what role does Nora play in this tangled web of tragedy?

She misses the rush of pulling an all-nighter and the sense of urgency of hunting a killer on the loose. Most of all she misses her old partner, Sam Kovac. Kovac is having an even harder time adjusting to Liska’s absence but is distracted from his troubles by an especially brutal double homicide: a prominent university professor and his wife, bludgeoned and hacked to death in their home with a ceremonial Japanese samurai sword. Liska’s case—the unsolved murder of a decorated sex crimes detective—is less of a distraction: twenty-five years later, there is little hope for finding the killer who got away. Meanwhile, Minneapolis resident Evi Burke has a life she only dreamed of as a kid in and out of foster care: a beautiful home, a loving family, a fulfilling job. But a danger from her past is stalking her idyllic present, bent on destroying the perfect life she was never meant to have. As the trails of two crimes a quarter of a century apart twist and cross, Kovac and Liska race to find answers before a killer strikes again.

Matt Thorne had come to his sister's rural inn to recover from an injury far from the city and his fast-paced life as an emergency room physician. Drifting between sleep and waking, Matt didn't trust his eyes when he saw the young woman who sat at his bedside in her plain cotton dress and apron, her chestnut hair tucked demurely beneath a white bonnet, like a beautiful vision from the past century. Sarah Troyer had been warned about the womanizing Dr. Throne, but nothing prepared her for the shiver of desire that shook her to her core when she gazed at him. Though her life was bound by the simple Amish way, Sarah had always longed for the world outside. Her job at the inn already branded her as a rebel in her community, and falling in love with a stranger would mean the loss of her family and the only life she knew. Yet something sparked within her with every touch of his hand, each glance from his dark eyes. Sarah was willing to allow herself a brief, secret adventure in the arms of a forbidden man. But she hadn't counted on Matt's passionate love—a love that would not let go, a love that could cost them both everything they knew....

Christian si totiž umínil, že rozehřeje led v jejím srdci a přesvědčí Alex, že si zaslouží být milována. Alexandra s překvapením zjišťuje, že tento švihák z dobré rodiny, s pověstí ne nejlepší, je citlivým mužem, který ji dokáže něžně líbat a vyvolat v ní zvláštní, dosud nepoznanou touhu. Christian je okouzlený nezkrotnou a temperamentní ženou a chce se dozvědět tajemství, které před ním skrývá. A nejen to. Rád by zmírnil bolest, kterou v její duši zanechalo bezcitné zacházení jiných mužů. Uspěje tento obletovaný světák a najde klíč k srdci nedůvěřivé Alexandry? Poskytne ji vytoužený pocit štěstí a spokojenosti?
