Description
Jackie Sheppard is a woman alone. Divorced from her husband, she had made a fine, strong life for herself as a lawyer in Los Angeles, until her young son's accidental death shook her to her core. Settling into a new home and practice in the different world of rural Coleman, Colorado, she hoped, would mark her decision to carve out an independent existence for herself. But when she meets a man named Tom Wahl -- a carpenter who happens into her life, becoming her helpmate, friend, and then impassioned lover -- her single-minded resolve begins to crumble. As Tom's mysterious past and his bizarre physical and emotional demands, are slowly revealed to her, Jackie comes to know true, shivering fear. Her life in Coleman, it becomes clear, will test her indomitable survival instinct to more nightmarish limits than ever she expected.
