After artist Claire Beaudry Chase is attacked and left for dead in her home on the Connecticut coast, she doesn' t know who she can trust. But her well-connected husband, Griffin - who is running for governor - is her prime suspect. Just before the attack, Claire was preparing for an exhibit of her shadow boxes, one of which clearly accuses Griffin of a violent crime committed twenty-five years ago. If the public were to find out who her husband is, his political career would be over. Claire' s certain her husband and his powerful supporters would kill her to stop the truth from getting out. When one of Claire' s acquaintances is murdered, the authorities suspect the homicide is linked to the attack on Claire. As the dual investigations unfold, Claire must decide how much she' s willing to lose to take down her husband and the corrupt group of elites who will do anything to protect Griffin' s interests and their own.
