When Jane Wells tried to escape from the jealous control of her abusive second husband, Michael, her life turned from a recurring nightmare, in which he terrorized and stalked her and her six-year-old daughter, into an unimaginable hell. Stonewalled by a Kentucky law that forbids pregnant women to divorce, Jane was forced to stay with Michael and submit to his vicious abuse, philandering, and beatings. After she gave birth, Jane entered a battered women's shelter, filed charges against Michael, and sued for divorce. Her first husband, her childhood love, reappeared offering his help. Foolishly thinking she was safe at last, Jane encountered a legal system biased toward her angry, vengeful husband, Michael. When a judge secretly reversed a restraining order, Michael entered Jane's house and stole her furniture. When he failed to appear at the hearing, arrest warrants were issued but Michael was never apprehended. Meanwhile, Jane could not foresee that Michael's rage, like a fuse growing shorter and shorter, would soon explode. And on a steamy day that July, he would be capable of murder.
