What this book is about
Maris Matherly-Reed is a New York publisher who receives a manuscript that reads like the unpublished novel of a brilliant writer who died years ago. She tracks down Parker Evans, the man who submitted it under a pseudonym, to a remote island off the Georgia coast. Parker knows who she is and why she's there — but he's been waiting for someone to come, and his interest in her is more complicated than publishing. A Sandra Brown suspense built around literary obsession and a long-buried crime.
