Mélanie sait bien qu'elle a été adoptée, que le charmant Dr Harper Stokes, honorablement connu à Boston, n'est pas son véritable père. Mais elle est loin de se douter qu'elle est en réalité la fille de Russell Holmes, un assassin condamné à mort et exécuté vingt ans plus tôt pour le meurtre de six enfants... dont la propre fille de Harper et de Patricia Stokes. C'est un journaliste de presse à scandale qui lui fait cette révélation. La petite fille qu'elle était alors n'a-t-elle pas été retrouvée comme par hasard, abandonnée et amnésique, à l'hôpital où travaillait justement Stokes, et au moment même de l'exécution de Russell Holmes ? Et qui donc a intérêt à déterrer cette affaire ?
Quand menaces et appels anonymes commencent à lui parvenir, Mélanie se confie au FBI. Mais le jour où le journaliste est retrouvé mort dans des circonstances mystérieuses, elle comprend que son désir de connaître la vérité sur son passé risque de mettre en péril, au-delà de sa raison, sa vie même...Traduit de l'anglais (États-Unis) par François Tétreau. -
