“Scary, shocking and perfectly suspenseful.”—BookPage
Two armed men enter the police station in tiny Heartsdale, Georgia, and open fire. When the shooting stops, an officer is dead, Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver is seriously wounded, and the survivors—including a class of grade-school children and medical examiner Sara Linton—are held hostage. In a tense standoff that could erupt at any moment into more bloodletting—with her ex-husband on the threshold of death—Sara must search for answers and an escape in the memories of a time at the start of their relationship when another brutal, shocking crime shattered their small-town world. Because the sins of the past have caught up with Sara and Jeffrey... with a vengeance.

“Complex characters with credible relationships underpin this gripping prequel to Slaughter’s Blindsighted…Slaughter’s tightly disciplined rhythm and occasional sly humor keep readers hooked right up to the end.”
— Publishers Weekly
" The characters in this story have gone beyond what I can accept as characters in a novel. The whole Lena character has gone too far. Returning to her job after what happened, a brief stint in patrol, no indication of therapy, and the fact she is back at work while still in a relationship with a convicted felon. Too much! I got part way through and was so fed up I didn’t finish. Waste of my money. "
