Utter Confusion

Cora Simmons thought she had the perfect marriage-until she walked in on her husband entangled with a much younger woman in their bed. In a moment of calculated rage, she ends their betrayal with a single pull of the trigger. But what begins as a crime of passion spirals into something much darker.

Determined to cover her tracks, Cora vanishes into the neon glow of Houston's nightlife, where she meets the intoxicating and enigmatic Daphne. Their connection is electric, their passion undeniable-but Daphne harbors secrets of her own. As Cora revels in her newfound freedom, she remains blissfully unaware that her past is closing in on her, and the web of deception she's woven is starting to unravel.

Meanwhile, the bodies in Cora's bedroom grow cold, and the world beyond her oblivion starts asking questions. A missing husband. A dead mistress. And a woman who seems just a little too calm. But when Cora wakes up handcuffed to a bed, facing a woman who is both her captor and her lover, she realizes she's not the only one playing a dangerous game.

How long can she run before the past catches up? And when it does, will she survive it?
