Married to her college sweetheart, she owns a chain of upscale hair salons, and Derek runs his own company. Amid the massive guest villas, couples' massages, and chef-prepared meals, Jessie realizes that not all is as perfect as it seems. Jessie had an atypical childhood, but she is certain now that she’s an adult that the dark times of her past are now officially behind her.A night spent sleeping on dirt and leaves is not how Claire Matchett expected to spend her vacation. As Jessie plunges deeper into their exclusive world of clubs, lunches, vacations and every possible perk, she quickly realizes that appearances are not what they seem in their silver-spooned world - and that a killer is actively hunting amongst them.
