Jacob Reese enjoys the quiet life, running a coffee shop and renting out his cottage in The Hollows, Vermont.
But the calm is shattered when a woman who looks eerily similar to his ex-girlfriend Laura turns up to stay in the cottage, and leaves a mysterious note in the guest book.
Now Jacob's seeing Laura everywhere-a glimpse of her face across the street, her music box left outside his house, a gift he gave her years before hanging from the trees.
But it can't be Laura. Because Laura's dead.
Someone knows Jacob's secret-what really happened the night Laura died-and they're out for revenge...
            A gripping and twisted thriller. Fans of Gillian Flynn, Gregg Olsen and Mark Edwards will love Steve Frech.
