Tessa and Eric forged a powerful love, a love so strong that even death could not diminish it, no, not even on that tragic night when she lost him forever. Although it's been three years, Tessa cannot seem to shake the feeling that her husband, Erick, is still alive. She knows how impossible it is and even how irrational it sounds. Tessa simply cannot wrap her mind around her new reality long enough to accept it. She is plagued with poignant dreams of Erick's return. It seems her mind tries, every which way, to manufacture an explanation why her beloved husband is no longer with her and that they can somehow return to life as they knew it before the accident. Her soul searches relentlessly for him in her dreams. But each time she awakens, her grief begins anew. Like a blanket, sorrow wraps itself around her as the harsh reality of another day without Erick begins. During her waking hours, she relives each moment of that last evening together. The whispers of her soul keep speaking. There is such a strong sense of him that it makes her feel unsettled. Before she can accept Erick's death, she will have to have concrete proof of it. They tried to convince her but she never saw his body, so Tessa hasn't been able to get closure, leaving her in a constant state of wonder. She hires a private investigator, if for no other reason than to ease her mind. But the P.I. can't seem to unearth any evidence substantiating that Erick is still alive. Tessa is sleep walking through life. Finally, she decides to take a trip abroad to help find resolve, once and for all. A savvy detective sparks suspicion. He works hard to keep the facts concerning that tragic night of their accident a secret. But Tessa's hound dog tenacity won't let her give up, nor be put off easily. She is able to see through his smoke screen and becomes all the more suspicious. Trying to throw her off course, he inadvertently puts the evidence of deceit into her hands. This new information makes her head spin so fast she can hardly breathe. She is left with even more questions swirling around in her thoughts. She knew the only find to find any real answers was to discover them herself. But then, in an instant, Tessa's anguish melts as peace comes like an unexpected friend. The years of grief and sadness wash away with the cleansing joy of a wonderful truth that she suddenly finds. Even in her wildest dreams, she could not imagine what comes to light. It changes everything.
