Though they seem to have everything, Hannah Parks has watched her husband, Dallin, become increasingly distant. Her hope is buoyed when the couple decides to start a family, but what Dallin reveals in his sleep one night rocks Hannah to her core. As she starts to investigate a much darker side of Dallin than she ever knew existed, Hannah peels away the layers of a diseased relationship closely tied to her own abusive past. When Dallin attempts to have Hannah abducted, she is forced to run, doing so with the aid of a man named Black—an ex-con and expert at helping people disappear. Together they must keep Hannah safe from her husband's far-reaching grasp, all the while trying to solve the mystery behind Dallin's sudden violence. Does Hannah's dark family history hold the key to her survival?

Ratings and reviews

I enoyed the book. I will read another by this author. Became a little long winded in parts so I skipped them. I would have preferred a different ending. All in all a good book but not a favourite

Good twists and turns, so the story kept me intrigued. It's a good mystery. I enjoyed reading it a lot.

Twist and turns is what makes this book so good. Excellent read
