The morning after a wife's discovery of her husband's affair, his lover is found murdered—and she and her husband become the prime suspects.

"A riveting, pulse-pounding thriller. Do not miss this book!" —Noelle W. Ihli, bestselling author of Gray After Dark

Victoria's life isn't as perfect as it seems. But when two homicide detectives show up at her door, it's about to get a lot worse. Still reeling from the discovery that her husband, Nick, is having an affair, Victoria is blindsided by the even more shocking news that his lover has been brutally murdered… on the very same night Victoria uncovered the truth of his betrayal.

Now the police are asking questions.

And Victoria may be a suspect.

With no shortage of suspects and no clear answers, Detectives Jack Stark and Lexi Sanchez are under pressure to solve a high-profile murder that rocks the picturesque village of Tarrytown just as Halloween festivities bring an influx of tourists to the historic town.

As suspicion tightens around her, Victoria sets out to uncover what really happened that night. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes.

She's faced with two terrifying possibilities… her husband is a murderer, or someone is trying to frame them both. Either way, the truth could be deadly.
