Could the murder be connected to Laurel's war-time spying? And who could have learned her carefully held secret? She's told only three people what she did--and now one of them is dead. As Laurel searches for the kililer, she also struggles over her love for Ridge. Is love enought to overcome the bitter wartime memories of a Northerner and a Southerner?
Her aunt says that there comes a time when no one can help except God. What will it take for Laurel to reach that point? And will God answer her prayer when she hasn't been on very good terms with Him?
