And at 28, married to an adoring older man, it seemed she had. Upon his deathbed, she promised to protect their young son by never revealing what she’d done. When, three years later, Celia finds true love with Alex Nolan, she keeps her vow until, as a surprise, he moves them into her childhood home where, painted on the lawn for all the world to see, are the words BEWARE—LITTLE LIZZIE’S PLACE.
All the horror comes rushing back, especially when the realtor who sold Alex the house is found dead, and again the newspapers are screaming for Celia’s head. But she knows who’s responsible. While proclaiming her innocence, Celia will have to defend her life—and that of her son—from the psychopath who’s never forgotten what she once tried to do….
