There is something about secrets that we can't explain-how they, through their own will, take on a life of their own. They dominate their owners through guilt; yet, they also soothe the psyche, providing justification for their covert existence. When caged long enough, however, they become rabid, and mutate into something more sinister than the devil on his worst day. They linger in their intelligence...until they find a way to shed the darkness...until they become strong enough to stand on their own.Then they are no longer secrets; they are gut-wrenching, flesh-shedding shards of reality having been fueled by fear of exposure.Arianna Jackson is now living that reality, drowning in pain, and cut to the core. She's been keeping one of those dangerous secrets since before she met the love of her life, Nate. Even though they've spent 11 years creating an idyllic life full of professional merits, a beautiful home, and happy children, Arianna's secret has sat lurking in the dark, waiting to spawn, waiting to wreak havoc in her utopia. When it surfaces, as they always do, her past and present collide, creating a 2-year long nightmare, literally. Not even Supervisory Special Agent Nate Jackson is prepared for what lies ahead. Can they survive the haunting, or will the secret win, perhaps multiply, and crash down their perfect life?
