Kat has been lying. Shes not just a lawyer; shes her firms fixer. Shes damn good at it, too. Growing up in a dangerous group home taught her how to think fast, stay calm under pressure, and recognize a real threat when she sees one. And in the days leading up her disappearance, Kat has become aware of multiple threats: demands for money from her unfaithful soon-to-be ex-husband; evidence that Cleo has slipped back into a relationship thats far riskier than she understands; and menacing anonymous messages from her pastall of which shes kept hidden from Cleo . . .
