AFTER A LIFETIME OF RUNNING FROM A MYSTERIOUS PAST, CLEO MUST NOW CONFRONT THE SECRETS THAT MIGHT KILL HER.

Fredericton, New Brunswick: The sleepy town in Atlantic Canada is only the latest stop for Cleo Brennan's nomad parents.

But Cleo's tired of drifting from town to town. At 23, she wants a permanent home. She plans to settle in Vancouver once she finishes university. Let her parents keep wandering if they want. She's done.

While she's long suspected that her parents are running from something-or someone-suspicion becomes fact when someone rams her parents' car into the river.

Now Cleo must discover the identity of the shadowy individual threatening her parents' lives… all while keeping an inquisitive detective at bay.

Then someone attacks Cleo and she must figure out, finally, what sent her parents running so long ago-before those behind the secret kill her.

Readers who enjoy strong characters who overcome overwhelming odds will love Cleo's story.
