HIDDEN TRANSGRESSIONS ALWAYS SURFACE A pair of pink, silk panties. A receipt from an overpriced hotel. Pictures of a young woman's scantily clad torso on a cell phone. Melody and Jack Dickinson's world is about to be turned upside down. Twenty years of marriage hangs in the balance when Jack's infidelity comes to light. Then, the unthinkable happens: the young woman's body is found beaten and strangled with a pair of pink, silk panties. In the same hotel Jack admitted he stayed at over the weekend. Melody's life spins out of control. Was she married to a monster? One who beat and strangled a woman to death? Or was Jack set up? Did Melody's own dark secret, hidden inside her heart for years, have something to do with the nightmare they suddenly find themselves in?
