After his wife's death, prosecutor Penn Cage returns to his hometown to raise his young daughter in a safe haven. But Penn is about to discover that nowhere is truly safe - not from long-buried secrets, and not from murder...When the body of prep school student Kate Townsend is found near the Mississippi River, Penn's best friend, Drew Elliott, is desperate for his counsel. The town's esteemed family physician, Drew has a shocking confession: he was sexually involved with the teenaged Kate. Penn will do all he can to exonerate Drew, who saved his life when they were boys, but his gut tells him Drew is hiding the truth. And in a town where the gaze of a landmark cemetery statue - the Turning Angel - never leaves you, Penn finds himself caught under the shadows of blackmail and betrayal, and on the jagged edge of deadly violence.
