About the book
No one shines the suspense spotlight into the darkest corners of American homes brighter than Linwood Barclay. In this tautly written novel of suspense, Glen Carver is left with a daughter to raise and a head full of questions when his wife dies in a drunk-driving accident--one that she caused. Sheila wasn't a drinker. Sheila wasn't even supposed to be on the road where she died. A conspiracy is forming around Glen, one that involves virtually everyone he knows, and makes him wonder how well he knew the woman he married. If Carver is going to find out what really happened to his wife, he's going to have to seek a truth that could get him killed. If he's going to protect their daughter, he'll have to go even further.
