Synopsis

A wife leaves her abusive husband but soon realizes nothing will keep him away—not even death.Josie Collins is the wife of a world-famous rock star and the envy of nearly every woman in the country. But the horrific truth is her husband wants nothing more than to see her dead.Josie finally summons the courage to leave her famous, abusive husband and returns to her hometown among the winter wheat of Kansas. When her husband is killed in a fiery car accident while on his way to find her, she thinks she has escaped him at last, but she’s wrong. It quickly becomes clear that even in death he has no intention of letting her go.As Josie develops a rapport with sexy police chief Paul Stark, trouble begins to brew. There’s something special about the tall, mysterious officer with the long, jagged scar down his face. But Josie soon learns that he’s haunted by a nightmarish past.Sparks fly in their small, Midwestern town, and as their attraction grows, so does a dead husband’s fury. To smother this dark, sinister spirit and perhaps find true and lasting happiness with each other, the living must learn to let go, give in, and leave their ghosts in the past.
