Serenas last memories of California are of her sister Amandas wedding to Sutton Condit, a wealthy rancher from Montereys oldest family. But when she remembers those days, she doesnt think of the bride but instead dreams of Jem, a sturdy young man who won her heart so completely that, when she couldnt have him, she fled to New York. Four years later she returns for a visit, and Jem is as charming as ever. He hasnt changed, but everything else on the Condit ranch has.Bitterness has crept into Amandas entourage, and strange secrets pollute the fine California air. Something terrible is afoot in the Condit mansion, and Serena has just begun to sense it when Suttons aunt tumbles off a cliff near the house. The old womans plunge seems like an accident until more murders follow. Nothing can protect Serena from the menace that haunts Monterey.
