Lana Stahl was to have a meeting with Mrs. Rose Stone, a Danville socialite who wanted nothing more than to revitalize the historic Victorian town. But when Lana finds Mrs. Stone dead and the only person in proximity to the crime scene is the gardener, she knows that something is not right. Who would kill the town's most important benefactor?
As Lieutenant Sheski, a Pennsylvania State Trooper, investigates, he finds that his suspects are reluctant to disclose their pasts--for good reason. The victim's husband, Dr. Lesley Stone, a psychologist, hides a terrible family secret that has cost him not only the relationship with his daughter, but much more.
Lieutenant Sheski must uncover all the secrets of cozy Danville to keep himself and Lana out of danger. When he reopens an old case involving the town's famous psychopathic artist and the murder of several little girls, the state trooper finds that decades of lies and deceit have led him back to his victim--Mrs. Rose Stone.
