Separated by a river and twenty years of lies.

Five minutes changed Poppy Sadlers life forever. Tick. The hospital called. Her mothers battle with cancer was finally over. Tock. The police showed up at her door. Her fathers body has just been pulled from the River. Tick. Murdered.
Tick, Tock. Five minutes and a secret is coming undone.

Across the river, Justin Caulfields vast fortune can buy him anything but more time. Tick. A deadly disease is stealing his daughters life. He needs a miracle. Tock. The person he never doubted names the price he never knew he owed. A price more than one man can pay. Tick. Betrayed. Tick, Tock. Twenty years of lies may cost him his very soul.
