Here is the new back cover copy: WILL THEY BE RIPPED APART AGAIN? Imagine the people who inhabit your world are back from a past life in Oregon to resolve unfinished business. Imagine your nemesis has reincarnated with you. Newspaper co-owner Emily Mason-Wohl does not realize the short story she has written is true. Her disturbing first graf reads, "I remember being murdered. I died in 1865, a terrifying, violent death. I shall never forget it." Thirty-four-year-old Emily has written about Brenda, who was murdered by her husband's lover. Chapter two picks up the present day story, set in 1978, and this time the action is played out against a Florida background. Water's Edge is under seige by a psuedo-religious cult, which is decimating the tax base--and worse, much much worse. However, the plot is almost secondary to the relationships between Emily and Alessio, the one true love of her many lives; also Emily and City Prosecutor Marta Miller, formerly a beloved aunt, now her closest friend. They work together to destroy the cult. Their passion for justice equals Emily’s passion for Alessio, and propels the plot, as together they help to destroy the cult. The inner lives of the characters, their psychological growth (and periods of regression) attainment of insights, and Emily's realizations of truth about who they all were before, compel the reader to keep turning pages, to a surprise climax and a satisfying ending.
