Digging into her past could end her future...Psychologist Deanna Young has spent decades trying to overcome her own fears and phobias-a legacy of insecurities handed down by her neglectful mother. But when her mother dies suddenly, Deanna uncovers a shocking secret that turns her life upside down, and casts doubt on everything she thought she knew-about her mother, about her friends, and even about herself. It's a secret someone else knows, too. And they would kill to keep it hidden. Working with a pair of private investigators, Deanna begins to untangle the sticky web of the past. But what lies in wait for her there could end both her sanity and her life. Torn between fear and her desperate need to know, Deanna must decide if uncovering the truth is really what she seeks, or if it's better left buried-either in her mind or in a shallow grave.
