Aprašymas

Can enduring love heal a shattered soul and broken body?
In their small agricultural town, Scarlett's family is the picture-perfect variety. The mother encourages juvenile delinquents at the local detention center and her father coaches the church's youth group. All is right until Scarlett lets a shameful secret slip. Blaming her for the indiscretion, the family silences Scarlett's accusation but the arrival of a new high school student threatens the delicate balance.

Everett's giant frame and fractured skull are compliments of his father, but his world shifts after an accidental touch from Scarlett. Starved for affection, they forge an inescapable bond. Their relationship is encouraged by Everett's grandmother, Marjorie Ashley, a woman with an unnatural gift, the ability to witness painful memories of those around her.

Fifteen years later, Marjorie is fading, her impending death a blow to Scarlett. Everett enjoys a flourishing legal career while Scarlett writes weekly investigative articles-keeping her own secrets hidden. An old police report is found in Marjorie's house, revealing a web of deception spun by Scarlett's family.

The deeper Scarlett digs, the more unsettling the discoveries. No longer aided by Marjorie's gift, Scarlett is given an impossible ultimatum, she must choose between the family who raised her and the man who loves her-or risk losing both.
