In spite of his parents’ best efforts, Carter Manning’s personal life spirals into an abyss of depression.

Since the death of beloved his fiancée, Jennifer Ann, Carter’s life hardly seems worth living anymore.Constant and unreasonable demands for money and attention from his manipulative ex-wife, Lindsey, don’t help matters. Jack, her useless but seemingly perfect boy toy, provides even more aggravation. Among the many gray clouds in Carter’s life, his headstrong daughter, Ashley, stands as his one ray of sunshine. Not even Lindsey’s dictatorial parenting style and attempts at keeping them apart, can break the powerful bond between the broken father and his rebellious child.Carter’s ex-wife threatens everything he holds dear when her tense relationship with their daughter falls apart. He travels across states to make things right, only to face an even greater threat.

Will he be able to face his inner demons, and save his daughter from a looming unseen threat before it’s too late?Dark secrets will be revealed as winds and passions rage towards a deadly climax. Geoffrey Moehl II’s thrilling supernatural follow-up to Front Runner is a story about the power of family, and a true love that endures beyond the grave.
