On a dark, snowy night, vacationing FBI Agent Jason Mackenzie is on his way to visit with a friend when he stumbles across something far more interesting than the usual fishing and poker games. A woman, standing upon the railing of a bridge, ready to jump. Or so it appears. While trying to talk her down from the railing the first doubts cross Jason’s mind. And when the woman tumbles into the icy waters below and he follows her, he sets off a chain of events that he could not have foreseen. Samantha O’Connell does not remember why she was found standing on the bridge railing, and even more worrisome, how she got there in the first place. Was it a suicide attempt or something much more sinister? Determined to help her find the answer to that question, Jason soon learns how one simple question can lead to many more, and how one secret, at the center of it all, can be deadly. In order to protect Samantha, he must break all the rules. Kidnapping her from a mental institution and hiding her away is only the beginning. A reluctant family’s secrets must be uncovered, and one of them is willing to kill to keep them buried.
