Marriage to her hometown prince turns terrifying when the bride realizes he's a murderer-and she's his next victim in this classic romantic thriller.
Maggy Warren's return to the small town of Milrock is the stuff of fairy tales. After growing up an only child of a widowed mother in the shadow of the wealthy, glittering Beall family, Maggy is to be married to Kirk Beall, eldest son and heir to the family business empire.
Days before the wedding, her childhood friend and protector Josh Mason returns from military service, warning Maggy to call off the wedding. Is it out of jealousy-or does he detect something sinister in Kirk?
Soon enough, a man is dead after what appears to be an accident. But as the body count rises, Maggy is certain her dream come true is really a nightmare.
