Did Zara Montgomery kill her terminally ill husband by deliberately overdosing him on morphine? The verdict is still out on that. She flees the U.S. to Scotland where she is inexplicably drawn both to creating living works or art with moss, and to widower Holland McCree.
Then a woman is murdered. Zara is a suspect.
Zara is desperate to remove suspicion from herself—especially to herself. She and Holland embark on a hunt for a killer.
From the on-purpose accidents that Zara suffers—rocks falling off the roof of her house on top of her, getting targeted by a hit-and-run driver, and being pushed off a dock at the harbor—it would seem that Zara is innocent and the killer wants to stop her before she discovers the truth.
