Two years after his wife’s tragic disappearance, bestselling author John Mastenhock has quit writing and left his Georgia home to take up a life of debauchery. But what John does not know is that his life is about to be turned upside down.After he is contacted by a bankrupt publishing company and told they hold secret information regarding the whereabouts of his missing wife, Lorry, they offer him a simple deal. John writes the struggling company a bestseller, and they hand him the info-and maybe the keys to his old life. Yet writing another book is anything but easy for a haunted man battling internal demons and a troubled past. While John works on the manuscript and searches for Lorry, he is ultimately led to a clandestine southern town and to a dead ringer for his wife who claims to have never met him. While he determines how to unravel the mystery of her identity, dark forces descend, his sordid past threatens to reemerge, and a cat-and-mouse game turns deadly. Now it is up to the sheriff and his small police force to prevent one man’s descent into madness from bringing an entire town to its knees.In this thrilling tale, a renowned novelist blackmailed into writing a bestseller by a bankrupt publishing company is propelled down a dark path where nothing is certain, including his sanity.
