I'm chasing the story. But someone is hunting me...
I thought my life was finally settling down after everything Nate and I went through last summer. But that was before Quentin Patrick-John stepped out of the shadows and offered me the kind of job I can't resist -- and probably shouldn't accept.

I know taking this job will push Nate's buttons. Writing the biography of a murdered woman while living in the house she died in isn't exactly a recipe for relationship harmony.

And now, in Diana's old bedroom, I'm beginning to understand why Nate fought so hard to stop me.

This house holds secrets. Quentin's not being straight with me. And Nate... Nate is hiding something too, something that's pulling him out of reach just when I need him most.

As I retrace Diana's steps through the final days of her life, I feel a presence in the house -- as if someone is watching me and waiting to see how close I'll get to the truth.

I came here to write a life story. But if I'm not careful, I might end up writing my own last chapter.

Perfect for fans of C.L. Taylor, Shalini Boland and Rachel Abbott.
