The work she loves as a part-time GED instructorturns into the job from hell when a retired kindergarten teacher with thepersonality of a piranha becomes her new boss.
And to top it all off, Detective Trish Harmon of the Willow, Ohio,police department shows up at her class looking for Kendra's favoritestudent, a troubled young man named Timmy who has been straighteningout his life.
A pretty local beautician is dead, and Timmy is suspect numberone. When he later shows up at Kendra's apartment begging for help, it'sonly one more step before Kendra's back on the road to trouble again,trying to find the real killer, stepping over the line from a nice safe lifeinto danger…and getting tangled in the deadly roots of desire.
