"Beth and Ian are desperate to have a child. So much so that they decide to sell his family cabin in upstate New York to pay for IVF. When they arrive at the cabin, they meet Ryan, the caretaker. But Ryan is not who he says he is... He's here because he knows Beth has a dark secret. And now he intends to use it against her. He threatens to tell Ian everything about Beth's past unless she does exactly what he says. Beth finds herself caught in a nightmarish trap. If Ian discovers what she's been hiding from him, she's sure he'll leave her. She'll lose everything she cares about, including the chance to have a child of her own. On the other hand, what Ryan wants her to do is so dark and twisted it's beyond horrifying. Either way, Beth is sure her life is over, she can see no way out. Unless... Unless she digs deep and finds a part of herself that is willing to do something so awful it doesn't even bear thinking about..."--Back cover.
