Sanctuary. Successful photographer Jo Ellen Hathaway thought she had escaped that house long ago. It was where she spent her loneliest years, after her family was shattered by the sudden and unexplained disappearance of her mother. Yet the sprawling southern resort off the coast of Georgia continues to haunt her dreams. Even more haunting are the pictures that someone is sending her - strange close-ups, candid shots, and finally, the most shocking and heartbreaking portrait of all a photograph of her long-lost mother...naked, beautiful, and dead. Now Jo realizes that it is time to return to Sanctuary. The island inn, run by her bitterly estranged family, brings back painful memories as she is enmeshed once again in the troubled relationships she has struggled so long and hard to forget. With the help of one man, she must learn the truth about who is stalking her - and about the tragic past that torments her family still. But the menace that drove Jo back to Sanctuary has followed her there. And those on the island will learn that Sanctuary may be the most dangerous place of all....

Media Reviews

[Nora Roberts] is at the top of her game. --People

Her most seductive and tempestuous work to date. --Tulsa World

Sometimes the atmosphere of a novel is so powerfully rendered that the setting assumes the importance of another character. Anne Rivers Siddons has this knack, and so does Nora Roberts. --Chicago Tribune

Nora Roberts just keeps getting better and better. --Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Roberts has a talent for vivid description: The sounds and smells of this verdant island waft from the page. --Publishers Weekly
