When newlywed Stella Peterson discovers an old photograph in an attic, she recognizes herself and her sister. But the dark-haired boy beside them bears an unsettling resemblance to her husband, Jake.
The boy may be the twin brother she lost as a child.
Jakeโs childhood has missing pieces, too. As they search their adoption records, troubling connections emergeโnames and dates that turn an unlikely resemblance into a possibility neither is prepared to face. Then a violent collision leaves Jake unable to remember Stella, their marriage, or the secrets they were beginning to uncover.
Now Stella must decide how much to tell a husband who no longer recognizes her. As she searches for answers, she discovers that someone has been watchingโand is willing to kill to keep the past buried.
Finding the truth could save their marriage. It could also cost them their lives.
