It was meant to be a festive night, her celebration for successfully completing a lucrative and high profile project-the Milan Art Gallery & Museum. But the night turns out deadly for CEO Beth Gunther when her former fiancé, the alias Serjio Milan, is murdered-and a police detective cannot let go of the notion that she is his killer. Fearing jail, Beth has no choice but to flee and start an investigation of her own. With help from family and friends, and from one other in particular, a handsome contractor named Parker Smith, she begins a dangerous hunt for a journal that may contain glues to the murder-a journal that may also hold the key to Beth's salvation.
