Description

"When Dr. CJ Patterson returns to her Southern hometown, she finds herself surrounded by a series of long-buried secrets--and a killer who seems to know her better than she knows herself. Drugs, prostitution, robbery, homicide--these are four terms that CJ learned all too well growing up on the seamy, forgotten streets of inner-city Huntsville, Alabama. Fiercely determined, CJ worked hard to forget where she came from and became an emergency medicine resident at a prestigious Baltimore hospital. But when her younger sister--the only family she ever had--is murdered, CJ is drawn back into the painful past she thought she'd left behind. Her unrelenting investigation uncovers a highly sophisticated web of shocking family secrets, dark obsession, and brutal violence--and a killer who will stop at nothing to keep her from learning the truth" -- p. [4] of cover.
