Taylor Walker, now widowed, awaits the trial of the nemesis who tried to kill her in Blood Ties. Her judgment is as flawed as ever with relationships: The one with her rescuer, former DEA agent Jeremy Briggs, hits a snag as she realizes she doesn't love him. Jeremy's involvement with his boss, Eve McGuire, further muddles matters and drives Taylor into a relationship with George Arroyo, a charismatic Cuban-American architect. There's one obstacle: George may have strangled his pregnant socialite fiancee-a dead ringer for Taylor-in Miami; his red tie was found knotted around her neck. Taylor's sheriff father cautions her about George: He's convinced George is a killer who's after Taylor's inheritance. A crime wave strikes the tiny panhandle town of Walker, Fla. Once again the crimes are somehow tied to Taylor. One murder mimics the dead socialite's: This time the murder weapon is Taylor's red bra: The work of the Miami killer or a copycat? The trauma Taylor suffered in Blood Ties, coupled with an undercurrent of menace and murder, prove toxic for Taylor: Alarmed at her weight loss and recurring nightmares, family and friends rally to place her in a Pensacola mental health facility. Is someone trying to drive Taylor over the edge to nab her money? Taylor confronts a killer and vows to take charge of her life."
