Pieces

Angelique isn't a killer, not truly-but witnessing the cold-blooded murder of her best friend, and discovering that the killer's identity is mysteriously missing from her memory, sends the beautiful medical student's moral compass spinning wildly out of control. To bring the murderer to justice, Angelique needs to remember, and she uncovers a dangerous way to do it-piece by piece. Now, her biggest challenge is completing her precarious mission before the benevolent detective, Ben Marsden, learns that the person behind the city's string of bizarre killings, and the woman he has fallen helplessly in love with, are one and the same.
