Illusion — Andrew Neiderman

Cool, ambitious, Jillian Caldwell is a rising star in a New York public relations firm. She's a professional image maker, catering to the illusions of her clients. But her own illusion of herself as a strong-willed career woman remains unchallenged -- until Ron Cutler, a new client, enters her life. Handsome, charming, he sweeps her off her feet, only to disappear for days, with no explanation.

He becomes a mystery, a mass of foreboding contradictions that leave her bewitched and unsettled. Or was she imaging dark secrets in his cryptic remarks and far-off looks? Glittering in the brilliance of his heirloom engagement ring lay the answers to the mystery of Ron Cutler. A mystery that was soon to lead her to a small hamlet in the Catskills…and into the most astonishing discovery of her life.
