Publisher Description
A serial killer turns up the heat in Miami in this gripping romantic suspense thriller from New York Times bestselling author Heather Graham.
Fifteen years ago, Sean Black was accused—and then acquitted—of murdering his high school girlfriend. Now, the bestselling crime novelist is back in Miami where he encounters another former girlfriend and discovers that the spark they felt as teenagers is still there. But before Sean and Lori can rekindle their relationship, they must confront the past...
Old high school friends—connected to the events leading to the fifteen year-old murder—are being killed. In order to learn the truth behind the deaths, they must return to the scene of the crime and stop a psychotic killer from finishing what he started so long ago.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
All of Lori Kelly Corcoran's friends are drop dead gorgeous, so which one grew up to be a serial killer in her hometown of Coconut Grove, and who murdered her pal Mandy Olin 15 years before? Lori, a teacher and sportswear designer, has returned to take care of her sick dad. Also back in town is Sean Black, the sexy boy from the other side of the tracks who was tried for Mandy's death and acquitted. Now a respected forensic archeologist, a professor and the author of bestselling thrillers (sorry, fiction is stranger than truth), Sean has returned to South Florida to sort out his troubled past. In Graham's first contemporary romance, she leaves behind the cliches of her reliably titillating bodice rippers for the cliches of romantic suspense, including the formula psychopath who speaks his inner monologues in italics. In a new twist, her beta couple indulge in a threesome, giving the experienced reader at least one coarse setpiece she has not read a thousand times over.
