At seventeen, Caitriona Walsh lost everything. Her freedom, her future, and her newborn daughter, at the hands of the very institution sworn to offer salvation. Held captive in a modern-day Magdalene laundry, she escaped with nothing but her rage and a vow: find her child, and make every person who stole her life pay.

Six years later, Cait hides in plain sight behind a nun’s habit, using her cover to hunt for answers and exact quiet but deadly vengeance. Her plans are derailed when she can’t stop herself from saving a young woman and her baby fleeing an abusive lover, taking refuge at the shelter she works at.

Things get even more complicated when the intoxicating stranger from the underground sex club where she goes to forget, turns out to be not just harder to get out of her mind than anyone before, but also Detective Liam Roark, the lead investigator on the murder case she’s just created.

As her world is threatened to unravel, Cait must navigate the razor thin line between redemption and ruination, all the while fighting for a dream of a future she’d already sacrificed so much for.
