In the lakeside town of Muskoka, grief lingers beneath the surface-and some secrets are too dangerous to stay buried.
Adeline is determined to rebuild her life after a devastating loss. Newly engaged and desperate to move forward, she tries to leave the past behind, but guilt over a death she cannot forget continues to haunt her. As her search for answers intensifies, her need for justice slowly becomes an obsession that threatens everything she has left to lose.
Lennie is facing a different kind of crisis. Terrified by the person she is becoming, she falls into a reckless relationship with the town's notorious bad boy. Drawn to danger and captivated by the rumors swirling through Muskoka, she finds herself tangled in secrets that place her at the center of a growing storm.
When a death shatters the town's fragile peace, Adeline and Lennie are pulled into the same web of suspicion, deception, and buried truths. As the investigation unfolds, both women must confront the choices they've made and the darkness they've tried to ignore. What first appears to be coincidence reveals a far more dangerous connection-one that could destroy them both if the truth comes to light.
Perfect for fans of psychological and domestic suspense, Scorned is a gripping story of guilt, obsession, betrayal, and the devastating consequences of secrets left in the dark.
