Quinn Summer is a runaway wife hiding from a homicidal spouse, refusing to go into the Witness Protection program. Instead, she returns to Oregon, where she grew up and knows her way around. With unlimited resources, her racketeering husband will not stop until he finds her and prevents her testifying in his trial for murder.By going off the grid, taking a new identity, and moving deep inside a northwestern conifer forest, she hopes to elude him until after the trial. Living in a miniature community in which nearly everyone has a secret provides challenges of its own, not least of which is the fact that the place is inaccessible except by boat. Everything, however simple, has its own special difficulties, even getting groceries. When her godfather mails(!) a beloved, well-trained police dog to her, and she meets a few of the neighbors, things appear to fall into place. She is not prepared for the suspicious reactions when she asks the wrong questions, or the presence on the island of a long-standing enemy she had never expected to see again, or for the mysterious man who seems attached to her side, or for the terrorist who is wanted by every law enforcement agency in the nation. She thinks she is prepared for the murderous husband to come calling, but that doesn't prevent her being caught off guard. Still, it appears that her greatest danger comes when she returns to Albuquerque to testify and puts her closest friends in danger.
