She's on the run, his career is on the line, and both are on the hook ... for murder.
Beverly Laborde became a con artist to get revenge on the man who shut down her grandmother's antiques business and sent her to an early grave. But she meets her match when she comes face to face with the tormented Vermont police detective, Adam Dutton. To make things worse, Beverly is the primary suspect in a high-profile theft case Adam is assigned under pressure from the police chief and the town mayor.
But Beverly and Adam soon face an even grimmer problem than their inconvenient attraction toward each other; they've incurred the wrath of wealthy and formidable Reginald Forsythe, whose criminal tendrils reach into all areas of Vermont politics and the corrupt Northeastern Antiquities League. And he'll do anything to keep his dark secrets safe.
Beverly and Adam enlist the help of a sympathetic antiques dealer as well as the mysterious "Mr. X," but will it be enough to prove Forsythe is guilty, not only of theft and bribery, but possibly murder? Beverly and Adam soon learn that even though it will difficult to outgun their nemesis individually, if they work together, they might have a fighting chance to find justice ... and to stay alive.
