Description:
Noelle Van Doren is through with her marriage to real estate developer Robert. But from this ruthless, charming man there's no such thing as a clean break. When he takes custody of their five year old daughter, Noelle finds she's is in for the fight of her life. Forced to turn to her estranged parents for help, Noelle, Mary, her aloof, high-powered mother, and Charlie, her father the local newspaper editor, join forces against Robert, whose power and charisma has fooled a whole region of upstate New York. Their frantic digging into Robert's past unearths a history of questionable relationships, most notably the dubious circumstances surrounding a high school sweetheart's suicide.
