Meet Kate. Nurse turned detective. Used to dealing with death. But not murder.

_______________________

It’s Friday night and Kate Kinsella is walking her dog in the pouring rain down by the river. Her dog’s frantic barking alerts her to a crumpled figure crouching by the bank. It’s a young woman clearly in distress.

Her name is Megan — and she’s on the run.

Keen to get out of the rain and help this poor woman, Kate invites Megan back to her office for a cup of tea.

As Megan recovers, she finds the courage to tell Kate her story — and who she’s running from.

Then Megan’s phone rings. It’s him. He’s spewing all kinds of threats and vows to find her.

Megan has no family, no friends, and nowhere to go.

After hearing the man on the phone, Kate provides Megan with the sanctuary she so desperately needs and invites her to stay.

But no good deed goes unpunished. Kate’s just made a very dangerous enemy — and he’s coming for both of them . . .
