A detective living with a tragic mistake.
A killer who can’t forgive.
Who will escape their past first?

Outwardly, haunted detective Robin Scott appears to have everything; a good career, a happy relationship and the respect of his peers. But he’s living with old guilt and a crushing loss he can never go through again.

Deviant boardroom bully Ursula Harrison is dead, and no one seems to care much. As Robin investigates her bizarre murder, he unearths a grim closet of secrets and a family desperate to keep them hidden.

While Ursula continues to assert her power from the grave.

Robin battles for control, drowning in a case laden with motive, but without a convincing culprit among those who wanted her dead. It’s the high-profile case he’s craved and a chance to prove his self-worth, but every avenue leads to a new dead end.

Ursula’s killer isn’t bathed in success either, finding it harder, as the pressure intensifies, to escape to the usual mental retreat. The sanctuary walls are crumbling leaving fewer places to hide.

When Ursula’s darkness begins to shadow his private life, Robin must deal with his own demons or risk losing everything he cares about, including his job and the woman he’s been trying not to love.
