<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Melanie Stokes learns from a reporter that she is the biological daughter of a serial killer executed years ago--the same killer who murdered her adoptive parents' young daughter. When the reporter turns up dead, Melanie must make a choice: run from the past, or face a grisly truth that could cost her her life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Twenty years ago, Melanie Stokes was abandoned in a Boston hospital, then adopted by a wealthy young couple. Gifted with loving parents, a doting brother, and an indulgent uncle, Melanie has always considered herself lucky. Until the first cryptic, threatening note arrives: "You Get What You Deserve." <p/>Melanie has no memory of her life before the adoption. Now someone wants her to remember it all--even the darkest nightmare the Stokes family ever faced: the murder of their first daughter. As Melanie pursues every lead and chases every shadow in search of her real identity, two seemingly unrelated events from her past will come together in a dangerous explosion of truth.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Just when you thought Lisa Gardner couldn't get any better . . . she does."--Lee Child <p/>A dark, powerful tale of nerve-shattering suspense.--Tami Hoag <p/> Readers get loads of angst, great procedural stuff, some hair-raising action scenes, and a villain to keep you awake at night.
