Book Description:
Some killers are born. Others are made.
As a rookie tabloid
reporter, Jenna Sinclair made a tragic mistake when she outed Denny
Dennison, the illegitimate son of an executed serial killer. So she hid
behind her marriage and motherhood. Now, decades later, betrayed by her
husband and resented by her teenage daughter, Jenna decides to resurrect her
career—and returns to the city she loves.
When her former lover
is brutally assaulted outside Jenna’s NYC apartment building, Jenna suspects
that Denny has inherited his father’s psychopath gene and is out for
revenge. She knows she must track him down before he can harm his next
target, her daughter.
Meanwhile, her estranged husband, Zack,
fears that her investigative reporting skills will unearth his own
devastating secret he’d kept buried in the past.
From New York
City to the remote North Fork of Long Island and the murky waters
surrounding it, Jenna rushes to uncover the terrible truth about a
psychopath and realizes her own investigation may save or destroy her
family.
