Since the night of the hit-and-run, her world has been shrouded in hazy darkness-until she meets Theo St John, the discoverer of a rare comet soon to be visible above Jericho. As the comet begins to brighten, visitors flock like pilgrims into town. Supermarkets run out of canned goods; campgrounds fill to capacity.

But Sylvia will soon realise that she isn't the only one haunted by the past. While everyone else is looking to the night sky for answers, her quest to uncover her husband's killer will unearth long-held secrets with far-reaching consequences.
