Kate Garrison has the perfect marriage, the perfect daughter, the perfect life...until one rainy night, on a deserted stretch of highway, where it's all brutally taken away from her. Her family's car plummets into the dark, murky depths of the river. When she recovers from the accident, she realizes she is being held at the hands of a greed driven maniac. A greed driven maniac who wants money she knows nothing about. Her will to live is shattered when she learns that her husband and daughter did not survive the accident...or didn't they? For three years, surrounded by lies and betrayal, Kate is forced to dig deep inside herself for the will to go on. With the help of an unlikely ally, she finally escapes. In search of the truth, she finds her way back home. She quickly realizes that life has gone on for the husband and daughter who were left behind that dark night, in depths of that seemingly endless river.

Luke Garrison has spent three years mourning the wife who supposedly drowned the night he nearly lost his own life. He's been raising their daughter alone and dealing with deeply rooted grief ever since then. But when Kate suddenly reappears, he's not sure what to think. The once vibrant woman he married has been beaten down into a person he barely recognizes. Her story of that stormy night and the past three years is almost too unbelievable to fathom. Luke quickly realizes she didn't leave him on her own, she was taken from him. And the maniac who took her is still on her tail. He will stop at nothing to get what he wants...including murder.
