Description

The riveting novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Liar.
 
“She stood in the deep, dark woods, breath shallow and cold prickling over her skin despite the hot, heavy air. She took a step back, then two, as the urge to run fell over her.”
 
Naomi Bowes lost her innocence the night she followed her father into the woods. In freeing the girl trapped in the root cellar, Naomi revealed the horrible extent of her father’s crimes and made him infamous. No matter how close she gets to happiness, she can’t outrun the sins of Thomas David Bowes.
 
Now a successful photographer living under the name Naomi Carson, she has found a place that calls to her, a rambling old house in need of repair, thousands of miles away from everything she’s ever known. Naomi wants to embrace the solitude, but the kindly residents of Sunrise Cove keep forcing her to open up—especially the determined Xander Keaton.
 
Naomi can feel her defenses failing, and knows that the connection her new life offers is something she’s always secretly craved. But the sins of her father can become an obsession, and, as she’s learned time and again, her past is never more than a nightmare away.

    One of the best books I have ever read - and I am a book addict. I could not put it down - my husband even said that after I read it nonstop. Nora Roberts is an amazing author.

    It started out very intense from the start, then kind of dragged on, nothing suspenseful for a while. The author does a good job detailing the home and the terrific views. I knew who the killer was pretty quickly, and was shocked more didn’t happen before the threat ended abruptly. I thought she would be the heroine of her own kidnapping. Instead, in my opinion, it all seemed to be rushed to end.
