Natalie Joday, a newspaper reporter with a knack for getting
at the facts, is pulled into a murder investigation by a tormented
young woman's cry for help. But her compassion turns to fear
when she discovers her brother, always a magnet for trouble,
is somehow involved. A lifetime of painful run-ins with the legal
system has left Natalie wary of the police, so she sets out to
solve the case herself by uncovering the secrets of the past--even
when the secrets are her own.
