His ex is dead. His new wife knows the truth. 
 
I watch the other detectives stare in admiration at my husband as he gives his speech. He’s a decorated officer, a pillar of the community—but I’m the only one who knows he’s also a murderer…
 
When I first heard about Carol Jones’s death, I couldn’t believe how much she looked like me. She was a homemaker, an avid baker, completely devoted to her husband. It could have been me who ended up in that grave. Then I met Conor, and I could see the pain in his eyes. He missed his wife, he needed her, and I was happy to fill the void she’d left. We married within the year.
 
But Conor doesn’t know that this isn’t about love. It’s about justice. And revenge. I married him to make sure Carol’s killer ends up behind bars. And I’ll do anything to make sure he pays for what he’s done…
