“A marriage in crisis. A betrayer in the wings. A life at stake.
Harriet Duval has it all—a handsome French husband, a delightful young daughter, a successful career as a professional ballerina behind her, and a beautiful future in a charming village in the English countryside. Even her beloved sisters can’t see the painful truth she hides beneath her perfect mask…
Successful businessman Leo Duval is at a breaking point physically, emotionally, and spiritually as he is forced to harbor secrets in Paris while his marriage in England dissolves before his very eyes.
The magnetic pull of Harriet’s old dancing life and the shocking murder of a Swan Lake ballerina causes her to question everything: faith, future, family. When the killer begins targeting the Duval family, Leo and Harriet’s vulnerable marriage is tested by an unimaginable traumatic event. Will the guilt they carry divide them when they need each other most?”

Kind words from endorsers…
“A beautiful, heartrending, and ultimately hope-filled dance of a story. The journey of Harriet and Leo back to each other took as many twists and turns as the roads of the quaint English countryside where their tale is set. Get comfortable with this one because you won’t be able to set it down (or breathe) until you have finished the very last page.”
Sara Davison, Carol Award-winning author
““With more twists and turns than a pirouette, Laura Thomas sets the stage for a heart racing story that begins in beauty and builds to a crescendo you pray won’t come. In her signature style, Laura layers secrets and
sinister situations into one impossible-to-put-down novel.”
Chautona Havig, USA Today Bestselling author
“Laura Thomas weaves together vivid characters, rising tension, and powerful moments of faith into a story you won’t want to put down. Harriet and Leo’s journey—from a struggling marriage to a hard-won happily-ever-after—is as emotionally moving as it is suspenseful. It’s the kind of story you’ll be thinking about long after you’ve turned the final page.”
Jacqueline Adam, Publisher’s Weekly Bestselling Author
