Synopsis

In the first sequel, Rebecca contemplates how to end her twenty year loveless marriage to her greedy, controlling, abusive, womanizing, but extremely wealthy husband, Marcus. Marcus, also desiring to free himself from his marriage contract, decides killing his estranged wife instead of divorcing her is a more lucrative option. Therefore, he hires a hit man, Big Al, to murder Rebecca however his attempt is unsuccessful and Marcus refuses to pay him. Consequently, Big Al, determined to collect his money, breaks into Marcus' mansion and robs, mutilates, brutally assaults him, and then dumps his lifeless body in the Mexican desert. After an extensive search by the Mexican Federal Police, remains of an American male matching Marcus' description are found and he is presumed dead. During an unexpected confrontation between Rebecca, Big Al, and Big Al's younger crack head brother, David, Rebecca is forced to shoot and kill Big Al. David, determined to atone for his brother's death, becomes Rebecca's constant tormentor. As the saga continues in this novel, Rebecca, believing Marcus is now deceased and she and her two children are finally free from his abuse, attempts to settle his estate and move on with her life. After putting Marcus' lavish mansion up for sale, via an estate auction, she moves into a new home and while unpacking her belongings, remembers a key she found hidden in Marcus' bedroom at the mansion. Rebecca discovers that the key is to a storage unit and what she finds stashed in Marcus' secret storage unit is a shocking surprise. In the final sequel, Rebecca's world comes crashing down when she discovers that the remains found in the Mexican desert were not Marcus' and that he has returned to Atlanta to reclaim his fortune and seek revenge. Follow the adventures of the returning cast of characters, particularly the villains, Marcus and David, in this unforgettable shock and awe climax.
