  When Dr Rennie Newton is summoned to jury duty, she brings to the courtroom the same degree of dedication and composure that she displays in the operating room. And it is this commitment to duty and precision that compels her to return a not guilty verdict in the trial of notorious killer, Ricky Lozada. But it might prove the most regrettable decision of her life ...When a rival colleague is brutally slain, Rennie is cast as prime suspect even though Lozada's menacing shadow looms over the murder. Not only does Lozada seem to be insinuating himself into every aspect of her life, but the police also seem intent on invading her privacy - particularly Wick Threadgill, an embittered detective with vengeance on his mind and a point to prove. As the stakes continue to rise, Rennie and Wick decide to forge an uneasy alliance - but what they both have yet to realise is that when the killer strikes, they won't see it coming ...

  While serving as a juror on a high-profile murder trial, Dr Rennie Newton finds herself defending the rights of the accused, a psychopath named Lozada, and consequently he is acquitted. Within days it becomes apparent that Rennie has attracted unwanted romantic attention - she arrives home one afternoon to find five dozen red roses waiting for her - but in a more sinister twist, her colleague and co-candidate for promotion at the hospital is found dead in his car, a murder that bears Lozada's hallmark. Is Rennie the object of Lozada's unrelenting obsession? Or does her seemingly bland past conceal a murderous heart of its own? The stakes are raised still further when Rennie comes under investigation by Wick Threadgill, an embittered cop with vengeance on his mind and a point to prove...International bestselling author Sandra Brown has crafted a stunning and explosive thriller that will undoubtedly take her fan base to new heights.
