From the author of the best-selling Love, Zena Beth and Benediction comes a new novel with a story ripped from today's headlines... "I really don't think I can help you, Carly." As soon as the words were out of her mouth, Lela felt her heart start to pound. The scream of the train whistle began in her head and her body registered the shimmy of the tracks as the train drew nearer. "Stay with me!" the voice cried out. The rumbling and whistling were so loud, the air seemed magnetized ... "You promised! Come back!" Carly Matson has a secret. So does Lela Johns. But when those secrets converge, a chain of events is set in motion that neither can escape and which will threaten their very lives... Attractive and aloof, Lela Johns wants nothing more than to finish her brief tenure as an English teacher at Franklin High while she completes her dissertation. Then one of her students, the pretty, shy Carly Matson comes to her for help. Carly's plight triggers memories for Lela -- memories so terrible they have kept Lela a prisoner of her own fear and guilt for over a decade. A panicked Lela turns to the lovely Kit for advice, finally revealing her dark secret -- a secret that has left Lela emotionally shattered, unable to open herself to the safe, enveloping love a woman like Kit can -- and desperately wants to -- offer. Soon Carly's troubles threaten Lela in ways she never imagined and Kit's counsel is no longer enough. Lela realizes she must seek out the ghosts of her past if she is to save Carly -- and herself.
