When Alex met Natalie she changed his life. After the tragic death of his first wife, which left him a single parent to teenage daughter Jade, he was desperate to leave the pain of his past behind.

But his newfound happiness is shattered when the family home is gutted by fire and his loyalties are unexpectedly tested. Jade insists she saw a man in the house on the night of the fire; Natalie denies any knowledge of such an intruder.

This is only half the story. The plot moves from then and now. We move away from the mystery of the house fire and into the story of two sisters and their involvement with a dangerous nightclub owner. The skill of the book is complimenting both strands of the story to make a fine thriller.
