A Cory Purchase Mystery A woman who wants a baby, but now lies in a coma. Murder on a snow-covered highway. A diary revealing love for the wrong man. A private investigator who desperately needs to find the truth. The brother-in-law who might miss the most important detail of all. His own feelings. Cory Purchase receives a call in the middle of the night. He can barely hear his brother. Will believes his wife, Amy, died in an accident on the highway. Beside himself with grief, Cory rushes to the accident scene. His brother is nowhere. Amy is lying on the freezing ground with an eighteen wheeler truck driver hovering over her. She is barely breathing. There is no sign of a crash. Cory must rush her to the hospital. After five hours of surgery, will she survive? Frantic for the truth, questioning how Amy arrived on the road at such a late hour, and why Will thinks she is dead but isn't at her side, Cory begins his search. Were Amy's injuries due to an accident or premeditated murder? His quest will lead him into the dark territory of sex, betrayal and revenge. He discovers his step-brother and his wife were living a lie, and as he unravels the thin thread between love and hate, he finds his own life in danger. He must stay alive. If she manages to come out of the coma, there is no one else left to help Cory's beautiful Amy.
