There will be no one to meet her. Her parents who brought her here…are dead.

They have found her a room in a rooming house, a job washing dishes in a restaurant. She will do fine, they said. But no one told that women in St. Simeon are already dying at the hands of a vicious predator. One, an actress who lived previously in her building. And others. And now, as Caroline struggles to survive on the outside, she realizes someone is stalking her.

But who will believe her? She’s a crazy woman after all.

Then, one cold winter’s night on her way home from her job, a man follows and is about to assault her when a stranger intercedes.

A stranger who hides his face and whispers her name.

“Ms. Hovey is a veteran mystery novelist, and although this is the first of her books I’ve read, I will be purchasing her previous novels. Her personalization of the characters is so superb that you feel as if you are the character. Easy to follow, and easy to read, yet full of shock and wow, Ms. Hovey I am impressed!!” will not disappoint.
