All she can remember is a stone wall, a roaring fire, and blood on a cleaver. Why can't she remember what happened to the baby?
After a third miscarriage, Tricia Buckman leaves her husband, Jeremy, hoping to come to terms with his lack of emotional support. While jogging one day, she collapses in a farmer's field and awakens to find that she remembers absolutely nothing except a stone wall, a roaring fire, and blood on a cleaver.
Jeremy gives Tricia the "space" she needs to realize she still loves him, but right now his job takes precedence. Two infants go missing, and as chief investigator, he has to find them. But when clues lead to Tricia as the kidnapper, will he shield her or arrest her?
Excerpt
Too tired to lift her head. She felt as though she'd run a hundred miles. Her leg muscles screamed a protest. The soles of her feet felt battered and bruised.
A violent shudder wracked her. How could she be so cold when she was sweating? With a supreme effort, she lifted an arm and wiped the wetness from her eyes with a terrycloth wristband.
The wristband came away streaked with red. Blood. Not sweat.
