In this "one of a kind" thriller by a Sunday Times bestselling author, a mother dies of a broken heart after her son's murder, but her remaining son questions whether her death was by her own hand—or that of the killer's (James Patterson).

It’s been twenty years since my teenage brother was murdered and my mother took her own life due to a broken heart. But when the police knock at my door and tell me my brother’s killer has just been found murdered, my heart stops dead—the killer had letters from my mother written just days before she died. My mother believed someone else was there that night. As the police search my home, my head races with a million questions. Did my mother really kill herself, or did someone get to her before she could find out the truth?

I pore over my mother’s letters late into the night until I discover a family secret that turns my blood to ice. Everything I thought I knew about the night my brother was murdered is a lie.  

As I get closer to the truth, another body drops. Someone in this close-knit town will stop at nothing to keep their secrets. Can I find them before another innocent life is taken?
