What Lowen doesn’t expect to uncover is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read, containing page after page of bone-chilling admissions. Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy. But as Lowen’s feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife’s words.

When the foursome is sent on an all-expenses paid vacation to mark their retirement, they are targeted by one of their own.
