Sondra Ackerman lived a normal life in urban Philadelphia with her husband and two children until her world was turned upside down by the discovery of her husband's involvement in drug racketeering. She couldn't have known that her decision to leave her husband and cooperate with federal authorities would result in the brutal murders of people she cared about and put her precious children at dire risk. Sondra turns to her best friend Connie for help and eventually to the world of alternative health therapies as more traditional routes to maintaining her sanity collapse before her. Navigating the Feds, her husband and a world filled with danger, Sondra is forced to flee with her children into the government Witness Protection Program, an escape where seconds become ever more important to staying alive. A web of rage, murder and deceit threads its way between Philadelphia and Mexico in an evermore desperate attempt to uncover her whereabouts by those determined to silence her. When her children suffer her worst nightmare, the stakes are high and Sondra must trust in the local and federal authorities to help save her family and a caring alternative therapy community to save her mind.
