Description
Todd Baronette has been haunted for years by a young girl's tormented gaze. If only he could right the wrong from so long ago. When he returns to St. Louis after many years in the wilderness, he soon finds himself behind bars for a crime he will gladly claim responsibility if it means an end to her pain.
Celina Grant's life of luxury means nothing after a devastating loss. She's held tightly to the need to bring the killer to justice. Suddenly finding herself face to face with a man she could never forget, she vows to watch him hang, knowing she will finally be able to move on with her life.
When Todd's unsavory family forces him back into the life he thought he'd left behind, Todd must choose whether to return to the authorities and set the record straight, or stay with the helpless socialite and protect her from the unknown using only his skills of perception and cunning. What happens when the memories of the past conflict with what they know of the present?
