A photo with no return address. A child she was told had died.
Shelby Cole’s world shatters when a picture of a little girl lands in her mailbox—proof that the daughter she believed dead at birth is very much alive. Driven by a mother’s instinct and haunted by the past, she returns to Bad Luck, Texas, the town she once fled.
But she’s not the only one drawn back. A decades-old murder has resurfaced in the headlines, fueled by a stunning reversal in testimony. Shelby’s questions are met with cold silence and threats, and someone clearly doesn’t want the truth unearthed.
With only one person willing to help—a man she once loved and no longer trusts—Shelby races to uncover a twisted legacy of lies and vengeance.
Some secrets should stay buried. Others will kill to remain hidden.
