Black Orchid
Bonnie Bean Graham
In Black Orchid, a brutal past comes back to haunt a Portland spa owner.
Traumatized at the age of 8 by seeing her stepfather kill her 1-year-old sister, Sabine has spent the next 18 years remembering her past abuse at the killer's hands and trying to keep him in prison.
When his parole hearing comes up, she's surprised to find Mitch, her teen love, serving as the criminal's attorney.
Mitch is just as surprised to see the girl who got away.
Now the killer is on the loose, and Sabine, independent and self-reliant, is in danger. She wants to get her normal life back.
Mitch wants to make sure he doesn’t lose Sabine again.
