A year after being released from prison, former pediatrician Blair Harbour is trying to keep on the straight and narrow, in the hopes of regaining custody of her young son. However, the appearance of her strung-out former cellmate, who is looking for her missing daughter, throws a wrench in Blair's plans. Meanwhile, LAPD detective Jessica Sanchez (who coincidentally put Blair behind bars) has recently inherited a multi-million-dollar home from a man whose daughter's murder she helped solve, and the bequest is causing more than a little animosity with her colleagues. Soon, Jessica and Blair's lives cross paths again in a twisty tale of ex-cons, a man on death row, a missing kid, and a possibly fictitious buried treasure.
While I loved both of the main characters in this book, the twists and turns seemed a little much for me. It's an easy read, though I feel like either Blair or Jessica could've carried the book on her own. This seems to be the first in a series though, so hopefully future entries are a little clearer.
