I received this book from the library. This is very good for a first time author. Driving home one rainy night, Cassie Larkin sees a man and a woman fighting on the side of the road. After calling 911, the veterinarian makes a split-second decision that will throw her sedate suburban life into chaos. Against all reason and advice, she gets out of her mini=van and chases after the violent man, trying to help his victim. When Cassie physically tries to stop him, he suddenly turns on her and spits out an ominous threat: Let her die and I'll let you live.
A veterinarian trained to heal, Cassie can't let the woman die. But while she's examining the unconscious victim, the attacker steals her car. Now he has her name, address, and he knows about her children. Though they warn her to be careful, the police assure her that the perpetrator, a criminal named Carver Sweet, won't get near her. Cassie isn't so sure.
The next day, Halloween, her husband disappears while trick-or-treating with their 6 year old daughter. As Cassie desperately searches for answers, nothing is as random as it seems. The book takes off from here. It has a lot of twists and turns as well as red herrings. I would definitely read this author again.
