Following a nasty divorce and the trauma of being stalked, criminal defense attorney Emily Graham leaves Albany to work in Manhattan.

As the house is renovated and a pool dug, a skeleton is found and identified as Martha Lawrence, a young Spring Lake woman who vanished several years ago. Within her hand is the finger bone of another woman, with a ring - a Shapley family heirloom - still on it. Determined to find the connection between the two murders, Emily becomes a threat to a seductive killer... who chooses her as the next victim
