Jane's husband was a man who had everything to live for, but took his own life. Jane stands in the void that remains, surrounded by questions destined to go unanswered, unless she does what all the grief, fear, confusion, and fury inside of her demand: find the truth, no matter what. There is no one else to speak for Jane's husband, or the others who have followed him into death at their own hands. Although people of talent and accomplishment, people admired and happy and sound of mind, have recently been committing suicide in surprising numbers, no one else is willing to give up everything, just to seek, to find, to know. No one except Jane. But ahead lies only risk. Because those arrayed against her are legion and dangerously devoted to protecting something profoundly important, or terrifying enough to exterminate any and all in their way.
