Broken

Sally knows that not all wounded souls can be mended. She also knows that, sometimes, containing the havoc they wreak might be the only way to blunt their shattering legacy. What she doesn’t know is that in the battle for redemption, it is often the innocents who are left broken.

When her wildly self-destructive ex-husband’s behaviour finally culminates in his violent death, Sally wonders if she had done all she could to save him from himself.   Mitch had secrets.  Secrets he had tried to share with Sally.  Secrets she didn’t want to hear.  What if she had listened…?

As details of Mitch’s last days come to light, his stunning desperation weighs on Sally.  And when she is confronted with evidence of a shady money-making scheme Mitch launched just before his death, she sees a chance to ease her own guilt and provide a gentler closure for Mitch’s son.  The money should be his inheritance – a final gift from an inadequate father.

In the search for his legacy, Sally slips down the grim edges of the bleak world her ex-husband had embraced.  A world she barely knew existed.  A world where dark lives writhe in sad, murky places, where danger breathes next to her and follows her home.  Her questions have awoken a monster who’s been hiding in plain sight.  To save herself Sally must abandon her hunt.  If she will be allowed to.  Someone is coming for her.
