For two long years, Abbie Campbell has been on the run with her four-year-old daughter, Emma. Then she receives a visit from Jake Connors, a friend of her parents, who convinces her to join them in the beautiful town of Cold Creek, Oregon. Jake is determined to help Abbie clear her name of the accusations that sent her into hiding. Being with her family again-and with Jake-fills Abbie with a peace she hasn't felt in years, and the prospect of turning an old lumber town into an artists' retreat gives her new purpose. But then comes an unknown threat worse than all that Abbie has already faced, worse even than the fear of discovery that's haunted her for two years. For lurking in the beautiful hills of Cold Creek is a killer determined to stop her at all costs. For two long years, Abbie Campbell has been on the run with her four-year-old daughter, Emma.
