All it takes to unravel a life ... is one home truth.

Marin used to have it all. A gorgeous husband, a great job, a growing family. Until her world fell apart the day her young son disappeared...

A year later, the search has gone cold. With her sanity ebbing, Marin hires a private investigator to pick up where the police left off.

But instead of finding Sebastian, she learns that her husband is having an affair. Furious, Marin sparks back to life. She's lost her son; she's not about to lose her husband. This enemy has a face, which means it's a problem Marin can fix. Permanently.
