Synopsis

"Heigelmann has crafted a striking psychological drama that carefully and thoughtfully explores the despair that victims of abuse and sexual harassment experience."- Kirkus Reviews.

A guilt-ridden single mother kills in revenge for the accidental death of her child. But she can't stop, and she can't hide what's inside in this dark noir crime thriller.

The future is bright for Madison Sanders, a 27-year-old business analyst and single mother. Finally free from her abusive mother’s controlling grip, she relocates across the country and begins a new job.

Soon after, dark troubles arise as her misogynistic male office co-workers sexually harass her to the point of desperation. Unwilling to tolerate any more offensive behavior, she strikes back, reporting the offenders to management. Feeling self-assured, she resumes her focus on work.

Then tragedy strikes in the form of an accident, resulting in the death of her only child. Madison accepts all blame and is crushed under the weight of her guilt and grief.

But everything changes as a startling revelation about the accident is revealed, sending her on a crusade to find the truth about what really happened. Frustrated by uncooperative police detectives, she turns to a private investigator to find the criminals responsible. But he finds much more than he expected.

The reader is transported through an odyssey of lies, deception, and murder as more facts about the crime are revealed, including Madison’s dark, hidden past, unbeknown to her. In the journey to find justice, her mother’s secrets are manifested in reality, forcing Madison to accept a horrifying truth that she can’t hide inside.

"An engagingly emotional thriller with surprising plot turns."- Kirkus Reviews.
