These words, overheard in a café on the road to Conja Creek, echo hauntingly in Amanda Rockport's mind as she meets Sawyer Bennett for the first time. Could this man, who has just hired her to bring Melanie, his eight-year-old daughter, out of the mutism she has retreated into since her mother's murder, be a killer?

So, when a mysterious stranger starts frequenting the bar where she works as a waitress every day, she immediately becomes wary. Yet, without quite knowing why, she feels irresistibly drawn to this man with dark eyes, fixed on her as if she were the most desirable of women...
