Sometimes, dark secrets don't fade with the years. Instead, they grow darker. Meghan Auric lives in self-imposed confinement atop a luxurious tower, the tallest building overlooking a small city on the Great Plains. Dark secrets and a long-ago betrayal put her there, while debilitating fears and guilt have kept her there. The upside: her much older husband's recent death has made her one of the wealthiest women in the state, and she intends to put those riches to a more noble use than he did. But now, political developments in a special election begin to unravel what really happened more than twenty-five years ago, offering her the chance to escape her gilded cage and to reap justice-as well as revenge. The downside: pursuing this truth would likely cause her to lose everything. With a wry sense of humor that never fails her, Meghan searches for the courage to begin her journey from self-doubt and isolation. Getting there won't be easy, though, with obstacles along the way that threaten not only her lavish lifestyle-but possibly life itself.
