About this ebook

Money can’t buy happiness.

But it can buy everything else.

‘Devilishly twisted’ Gillian McAllister

Mack and Hailey Evans are on the cusp of living the American Dream. Established careers, two beautiful children, and a new house on a coveted lakefront estate.

But modern life is expensive, so the anonymous cheques they start to receive are spent before they know it. Could this money be from Mack's estranged father? Or one of Hailey's clients? Does it really matter?

Then they discover that this mysterious benefactor expects a return on their investment. How far will the couple have to go to pay them back?

Debt is like fire, and someone wants to burn Mack and Hailey’s lives down to the ground.
