But the tide turns when Fin realizes the lethal accidents are not coincidences-the killer is targeting her family. She can trust no one and must set a course to surface the predator's identity before her family is swept away on a wave of malevolence.

Amid a mess of double-crossing, blackmail and fraud, she sets a trap to catch a killer—but may catch more than she bargained for...
