Living under assumed names and moving from place to place, Marissa attempts to stay just one step ahead of David Chambers, while her family thinks her dead. Keeping others at arm's length has been absolutely necessary for Marissa's survival. But when she settles in a small town near Boston as Carlee Stephens, she finds herself getting close to her neighbor, Detective Nick Andrews. Between her growing feelings for Nick and her renewed commitment to God, Marissa finds it harder and harder to live with her secrets. Will she finally trust someone enough to ask for help? Or will David's madness consume them both?
