| Back Cover / Inside Flap: | "When Nicholas Spencer, the charismatic head of a company that has developed an anticancer vaccine, disappears without a trace, reporter Marcia "Carley" DeCarlo is assigned the story. Word that Spencer, if alive, has made off with huge sums of money - including the life savings of many employees - doesn't do much to change Carley's already low opinion of Spencer's wife, Lynn, who is also Carley's stepsister and whom everyone believes is involved. But when Lynn's life is threatened, she asks Carley to help her prove that she wasn't her husband's accomplice. As the facts unfold, however, Carley herself becomes the target of a dangerous, sinister group that will stop at nothing to get what they want." |

| Review: | Carley, an easy-to-like reporter who is in the unenviable position of being stuck between her duties as a reporter and her obligation to family, shows terrific investigative skills as she tries to uncover exactly what the truth means in a world that suddenly becomes complicated by a cast of characters who all have something to hide.
