WIFE. MISTRESS. MURDERER. If you were being framed for murder, how far would you go to clear your name?

But she's also having an affair with a famous client. And no one can ever know. But that doesn't make me innocent. When Bethany's lover is brutally murdered, she has to hide her grief from everyone. But someone knows her secret. And then one day the threats begin.
