When Kerry McGrath - a smart, relentless prosecutor - takes her daughter to see a plastic surgeon following a car accident, she sees a woman in the surgery with a beautiful, hauntingly familiar face. On a subsequent visit, she sees the same face again - on a different woman . . .
Suddenly she remembers: both women look startlingly like Suzanne Reardon, the Sweetheart Murder victim whose husband, Skip, is now serving a life sentence for that crime.
When Kerry starts asking questions, she discovers that just about everyone wants the case kept closed. Still she persists - but what she doesn't know is that it is already too late. Her puzzled queries have triggered a response and she is in great and growing danger.
