Un simple pergamino y una llave de plata. Un secreto transmitido de generación en generación. Un misterio a la espera de ser desvelado. Una madre lega en su testamento un misterioso escrito y una sencilla llave de plata al menor de los hermanos. La tradición familiar establece que dichos objetos pasen de madres a hijas, pero ella, al tener únicamente hijos varones, se devana los sesos durante las últimas semanas de su vida para decidir qué hacer con aquellas curiosas menudencias sin valor aparente que habían permanecido en el seno de la familia durante generaciones. Tal vez debería recibirlas Alex, pero siempre ha estado muy unida a Will, y aunque en verdad ama por igual a ambos, ella se aferra al presentimiento de que este último es el destinatario más idóneo. El documento parece tener mucho que decir. Un enigma por descifrar, un legado por desenterrar, un corazón por curar.

When Lauren Stillwell discovers her husband leaving a hotel room with another woman, she decides to beat him at his own game. But while she's sneaking around, her husband is hatching a plan of his own. After a torrid quickie with a co-worker, Lauren hears a struggle outside her window and looks out just in time to see her husband loading her lover's limp body into the trunk of a car. When the body shows up in a pool of shallow water, she races to the scene of the crime. But Lauren Stillwell is no regular wronged woman. She's a NYC cop—and she's just been assigned to this case. Unable to tell anyone what she saw and unwilling to turn her husband in, Lauren is paralyzed by a secret that will tear her life apart. But as she attempts to point fingers away from her husband, she uncovers something shocking: her husband didn't have an affair—what he did was far worse than she could have ever imagined. A gripping story of secrets and infidelities that begins where Adrian Lyne's movie Unfaithful leaves off, The Quickie will have readers' hearts pounding to the very last page.
