But her well-connected husband, Griffin--who is running for governor--is her prime suspect. Just before the attack, Claire was preparing for an exhibit of her shadow boxes, one of which clearly accuses Griffin of a violent crime committed twenty-five years ago. If the public were to find out who her husband is, his political career would be over. Claires certain her husband and his powerful supporters would kill her to stop the truth from getting out. When one of Claires acquaintances is murdered, the authorities suspect the homicide is linked to the attack on Claire. As the dual investigations unfold, Claire must decide how much shes willing to lose to take down her husband and the corrupt group of elites who will do anything to protect Griffins interests and their own"--Provided by publisher.
