Death's Companion

The fear of a failed suicide attempt is the only thing that sustains Kameron's life, and a fifth of vodka a day keeps a bleak reality away. After what happened in the past, she now has nothing to live for. After all, she's nothing more than a low-level attorney, scraping by on the dregs of undesirable court-appointed cases. But when a concerned colleague reminds her of the bright and ambitious woman she once was, Kameron puts in a call to a recommended therapist for healing. She is willing to try anything to silence the pains of the past and gain a sliver of normalcy, even her new therapist's unorthodox treatment. Bridget Garret's psychotic husband disappeared five years ago and she should be ashamed of her overwhelming desire to have him back, but she's not ashamed; she's determined. When she hires a private investigator to track him down and bring him home, she never anticipated having to balance the task of finding her husband with the demands of her new suicidal client, Kameron Peace; nor did she expect that Kameron's therapy sessions would play a vital role in bringing closure to a five-year-old mystery. As Kameron's fleeting sanity quenches Bridget's thirst for answers, they both come to find that what they thought to be a psychological breakthrough was just a shrewd disguise for absolute ruin.
