Description: "Sweetheart roses-the traditional gift of lovers. Yet they had been an important clue in the murder ten years ago of strikingly beautiful Suzanne Reardon, whose husband, Skip, is now serving a life sentence for that murder. Kerry McGrath had only begun to work in the county prosecutor's office at the time of the infamous 'Sweetheart Murder Case, ' yet she remembers being impressed by both the ability of her new boss, Frank Green, displayed in successfully pursuing the conviction, and the general ineptness of the defense counsel. Skip Reardon's fate was sealed, and Green's reputation made. Now Kerry herself has gained quite a reputation as a smart and relentless prosecutor, so much so that her name has been given to the governor as a candidate for a new judgeship he is about to award. It is something she wants desperately, not only a change to enter a level of the legal world open to only a few, but an opportunity to prove to her ex-husband, Bob Kinellen, that she is indeed special. Then suddenly Kerry's plans are turned upside down. When Kerry's beloved daughter, Robin, is injured in an automobile accident, suffering superficial but nonetheless potentially disfiguring cuts to her face, she is treated by a well-known plastic surgeon. It is in the doctor's office that Kerry first sees the woman with the beautiful face, a face she remembers from the past but can't place. Then, on another visit to the plastic surgeon, she sees the same haunting face again-but not on the same woman as before! Suddenly she remembers-the face those women share was the same face she had seen in the pictures of Suzanne Reardon, the 'Sweetheart Murder' victim, killed ten years ago! But why would someone be giving these women the face of a dead woman? When Kerry begins to ask questions, it soon becomes clear that almost no one involved-not her boss Frank Green; not her ex-husband and his shady 'Irish Mafia' client Jimmy Weeks; not her long-time friend and benefactor, State Senator Jonathan Hoover; and most especially no Dr. Smith, the plastic surgeon-wants to see the case reopened. And it soon becomes apparent that one of them will stop at nothing to prevent it"
