About This Book

She's seen something too horrifying for words. No one knows what really happened the night Lisa Randolph fell off the cliff. Now she is paralyzed and mute, so it seems no one ever will. Then Melanie is hired to read to Lisa. At first Lisa just stares blankly, soon she seems to be desperately trying to tell Melanie a secret. After Melanie's own life is threatened, she knows Lisa's secret is deadly.
