Publisher's Synopsis
When Alicia's husband calls her and confesses to killing someone, and then kills himself, it's up to her to piece together what really happened. After moving into the run-down apartment he rented as an art studio, Alicia spends her days getting closer to the neighbors and absorbing every bit of gossip about her husband and the buildings' tenants. But the more she learns, the less sense things seem to make. And when threatening letters start appearing in her mailbox, Alicia has to decide what's more important--the truth or her own safety. Meanwhile, Cass has been running the Sycamores, an apartment complex that has seen better decades. Barely scraping by as a superintendent, Cass starts blackmailing sleazy men, threatening to expose them and ruin their lives. It's easy, and it works, and nobody gets hurt--until she tries it on the wrong guy. With a body on her hands and no one to trust, Cass has to fight to keep her secrets under wraps, especially with Alicia snooping around asking questions...
