Synopsis
Darkness loomed, but the music—and the flickering light—persisted. Then grew stronger.
The music stopped, the room emptied, and Baxter Richardson opened his eyes for the first time in months. He should have died from his involuntary plunge off a cliff. But he's alive, and mortal danger remains. Familiar enemies stalk him. New ones hover close at hand.
Meanwhile, haunted by accusing apparitions and the tightening dragnet of criminal investigation, Baxter's wife, Rena, is losing her patience. And quite possibly her mind.
Caught in the middle of it all is Alexia Lindale, a lawyer forced to find her way through deceptive alliances, uncertain romances, and courtroom intrigue. It's a struggle of life and death...and life everlasting.
Library Journal
This fast-paced sequel to Life Support begins with Baxter Richardson waking up from a coma caused by his wife pushing him over a cliff. Only Rena has convinced everyone that he fell while he was trying to kill her. Baxter's father, Ezra, is using his power of attorney to transfer his son's property to his name and leave Rena out in the cold. Rena's lawyer, Alexia Lindale, wonders if some recent break-ins at her home are tied to the Richardson family. She also is becoming fond of Ted Morgan, a minister who believes God can use him through music to help Baxter recover.
