Was the death of Vermont socialite Ethan Willitts an accident, suicide, or murder? Susan Willitts, the not-grieving, much younger trophy wife swears she didn't pull the trigger, but Abby, her grief-stricken daddy's-girl daughter, says her mother is guilty. It's up to small town police Lieutenant Trent Prester to get to the truth. But he's caught between the rock and hard spot because the widow and possible murder suspect is the unattainable woman he has loved ever since their college days twenty years before, and she is not unaware of his vulnerability to her seductive charms.
Strongly plotted and peopled by complex, conflicted characters who are, like all of us, seeking love and happiness, SECOND CHANCES -- a compelling mystery -- probes the intricacies and intimacies of human relationships. Along the way, SECOND CHANCES also investigates themes of love and obsession, integrity and betrayal, revenge and redemption.
