From the back cover

After four years on a classified national mission, John Xander turns on his long-silent phone to call his wife, Nora Christie, and tell her he is coming home. Instead he finds a court notice declaring him legally dead, filed by Nora herself. She laughs it off as a clerical error, but a stifled moan in the background tells him something is very wrong. Medal in hand, he takes the next train home.

At his own mansion, Nora is holding a wedding ceremony with Henry Crowley, the poor student he once sponsored. The security guard bars him, the fingerprint lock rejects him, and a baton breaks his hand. Nora calls it a fake wedding to help Henry recover, yet the marks on her body say otherwise. She orders her guards to drag John to the basement, striking the ribs he once broke protecting her.

As he is hauled past walls stripped of every trace of his old life, John remembers the fire that started it all, and the truth of who really saved Nora.

Inside the book Opening excerpt

I dug out the phone I hadn't touched for four years, planning to call my wife, Nora Christie, and tell her that I'd be coming home.

But the moment my phone screen lit up, I saw a public court notice declaring me… dead.

I froze. Then, I looked closer. The person who had filed the petition to have me legally declared dead was Nora.

Frowning with confusion, I dialed her number.

With a soft chuckle, she brushed it off, saying that it must have been a clerical error by some court intern. Then, she asked when I would be coming home.
