Elaine Cagwell belonged to one of the most respected families in Delta, Alabama. And she dated Tom Haynes, one of the town's most promising young men. Then her life was shattered when she was accused of shooting her mother. Even though Elaine was never convicted of the crime--and Tom believed her innocent--there were times she believed she might have done it in a moment of madness.

After five years in London, Elaine had come home to see if Tom still loves her. She also want to prove her innocence to everyone, including herself. But the sweet romantic dream she secretly cherished turns bitter. Because Tom loves her glamorous sister Fay now and someone keeps bombarding Elaine with macabre mementos of the old crime--mementos that make her fear for her very sanity.
