   Summary

   In the weeks since her ordeal with Jarvis Tatum, Christy struggled with fear and guilt, reliving certain moments every time she closed her eyes. Chief among those images was the bleak look on Neil MacNeill’s face as she’d led her captor out of the cabin… but was she ready to admit why that might be?

   When Miss Alice let slip that he’d expressed considerable guilt regarding Ellie Tatum’s death, Christy decided to stop by MacNeill’s cabin to check on him. At best, she could distract him from his troubles, and at worst, their inevitable argument might help with her own.

   Instead, she and Neil are thrust into an unexpected position that can’t help but expose the tension between them. To slay the dragons they’re faced with, they’ll have to join forces-- either in a lie, or something far more perilous: the glorious, dangerous truth.
