Publisher's Synopsis
Laura Brandon didn't want to work for her uncle because she valued her independence. So she recommended her friend Julie for the job of physiotherapist at the exclusive Mountview Clinic. A few months later Julie is brutally murdered in the woods that surround the clinic. Laura, tinged with guilt, wants to find out why -- so she offers herself as Julie's replacement. It isn't long before she begins to regret her impulsive move. Confronted by tightlipped nurses, inter-staff feuds, and strange tales about a shadowy evil that lurks in the woods, she realizes that Mountview and the town of Blackwater itself may have something to hide. But playing detective is rather awkward when the clinic's owner/manager is your very own uncle, and you don't know where to begin.
