Theirs was a secret they'd kill to protect.

One. Two. Three cracks of thunder. Three reasons to run and hide.

When the lightning illuminated the night, I saw their bloodied faces. They were no longer the boys from next door. As quick as the storm rolled over the neighborhood, a crime of passion was committed, Lucas and Mason Carter dangerously altering the course of all our lives.

Ten years later, on my 26th birthday, when detectives come digging for information on a cold case, I find myself once again unwillingly tangled in the spider's web. I hold information on a heinous crime. I have become the number-one target. More specificly, I have become Mason Carter's obsession.

While one brother seeks to destroy me, I have to believe the love I share for the other could somehow save us all. When running proves futile, I'm left with a choice. Reveal the deadly truth or dare to take on the monsters lurking in the dark.
