Tyrus Books, June 2011
When the steadfast Ruby Jane Whittaker drops out of sight, dogged ex-cop Skin Kadash sets out to discover what drove the woman he loves to leave her life behind so suddenly and without explanation.
The discovery of a dead man in Ruby Jane's apartment and an attack by a mysterious stalker send Skin from Portland to California -- and into a charged encounter with her one-time love Peter McKrall.
As questions mount and answers grow increasingly out of reach, Skin and Peter cross the country on a desperate journey deep into Ruby Jane's haunted past -- and toward an explosive confrontation which will decide if any of them has a future.
