Daughter of a cold, controlling mother and an anonymous donor, teenage Elizabeth finally let loose one night, drinking too much and allowing a seductive Russian to lure her to a house on Lake Shore Drive. Twelve years later, the designer of sophisticated security systems now known as Abigail Lowery lives alone on the edge of a small Ozarks town--a loner who says little and reveals nothing. Local police chief Brooks Gleason is intrigued by Abigail on both a personal and professional level --and consequently is about to walk into the sights of powerful and dangerous men, while Abigail is at risk of losing the security and self-control on which she's built her life.

Abigail Lowery is a mystery and Brooks Gleason, the local chief of police is intrigued. He is part of the local community and he wants to know more about her. She has got too used to hiding, she saw a Russian mafia murder at 16 and they still are hunting her, she really has no choice but to try to hide out and appear to be not who she really is, however, the murder was 15 years ago and who she really is isn't clear. They have to work out how to move forward, possibly together.
The two of these characters were great fun and I really enjoyed the read.
