Iris

Iris Eliza Henley grew up in the outskirts of Boston. The only daughter of the police chief, she learned at a young age the cost of safety and security in a city drowning in darkness and drugs. When her father is killed in the line of duty, protecting her, she has no choice but to run into the arms of her father's best friend, the new police chief, Craig Ryerson. Thirty-four years her senior, Craig demands respect and obedience, attributes that are blurry to a woman on a mission. Defiance comes natural to Iris as she seeks retribution for her father's death. Can she learn to let go of the past, to accept a future full of loyalty and love? Or will her desperate search for revenge be the end of her?

Her defiant nature has served her well up until this point in her life but now, as the walls close in around her, she must change her way of doing things. Has her desire for vengeance seeped too deeply into her soul? Craig makes one last attempt to redirect her path, leading her to beautiful Songo Pond in western Maine. Will the monsters follow her, or can she learn to live happily ever after?
