Truth hurts. And sometimes it kills.
Claire Holloway thought returning the millions her late superstar-pastor husband stole would finally repair the damage he left behind. Instead, it makes her a liability.
As regulators, bankers, and a furious public close in, Claire becomes the easiest person to blame-and the hardest person to control. Someone wants the money. All of it.
When Doris, the bank's regulatory attorney, is found dead on Claire's front porch-with Claire's fingerprints on the weapon-the fallout turns lethal.
Hunted by police, vilified by the town she came back to make whole, and cut off from the institutions that once dictated the rules, Claire goes on the run to uncover who killed Doris-and why.
What she uncovers isn't just a crime. It's a reckoning years in the making.
Because the truth won't just clear her name.
It will destroy the town that needs a scapegoat.
And it may cost Claire her life.
