Publisher's summary

She’s a cop turned defense lawyer; her husband a research scientist. She lives in a half-million-dollar home. Yet on this night, Andrea Wilson - a woman who seemingly has everything - awakens to a living nightmare. Her husband, Paul is dead, she’s covered in his blood, and the police are banging on her door. Andrea doesn’t remember what happened, but she knows how it looks. With just a split second to make a choice, Andrea decides to run, and in doing so risks everything in an attempt to clear her name.

Enter Detective Mike Coletti. He and Andrea shared a relationship once; now all they share is the chase. As Andrea races to prove her innocence and Coletti struggles to track her down, each uncovers clues about the mystery of Paul’s death, and along the way, Andrea finds the answer to the biggest question of all: Is her husband actually still alive?

Solomon Jones is the Essence best-selling author of the critically acclaimed novels Payback, C.R.E.A.M., The Bridge, Ride or Die, and Pipe Dream, as well as the short-story collection Keeping Up with the Jones.

I CANNOT...

I have been trying to listen to this book for over a month. I can only listen to bits and pieces at a time. I keep stopping to listen to other books which I have finished in a day or 2. Maybe I am just not used to the writing style of this author but I simply cannot get into this book. Im on chapter 11 but I have to stop here, I just CANNOT...
