Lamb opens her magnetic novel with a tantalizing glimpse of a mystery and a feisty heroine to root for, resulting in a fast, suspenseful read with an action-filled, unexpected resolution." (Library Journal, Publishers Weekly) When Natalie Shelton thinks back to how things were before the car accident, she remembers a great marriage. Her husband, Zack, and her seem as strong and dependable together as the houses he builds. They live in Portland, Oregon, and Natalie is co-owner of a successful accounting firm. She's almost sure they're happy. Yet as Natalie lies trapped in a coma, unable to communicate, she realizes that her husband is hiding something. Zack has always been reticent about his past, which she attributed to an unhappy childhood. Now the strange calls he’s receiving, the apologies when he thinks she can’t hear him, and her fragmented memories from the morning of the accident suggest a deeper secret. When she finally awakens, Natalie is determined to find out the truth. Sorting through clues as her brain heals, she realizes she has a rare opportunity to reexamine the life she's made and the man she's made it with. But as answers come to light, she faces surprising, heartrending decisions, as well as a danger that could upend her world once again, as Zack’s past finally catches up with them.
