Being the long-estranged son of the deceased, Landry Jackson quickly becomes a person of interest. But does Landry loathe his father as much as the feds suspect? It is clear to Alia that Landry Jackson has secrets, but his hatred for his father isn't one of them. Alia feels sure Landry isn't the killer, but once more family members start dying. she is forced to question herself. What if the fierce attraction between her and Landry has compromised Alia's instincts?"--Page 4 of cover.
