Lucy Price is living the American dream . She has been married to her successful husband and businessman , Edward Price for a year and couldn ’ t be happier until she learns that Eddie is a dangerously ruthless man , heavily involved in illegal activities that threaten not only her marriage , but her life . Eddie abruptly disappears , but not before warning Lucy that if she wants to keep breathing she ’ d better keep her mouth shut . Six months later , word of her husband surfaces when she learns that he is presumed murdered in a small Texas town , apparently killed by his “ wife ”, Marlowe Price .
Marlowe is no stranger to trouble . An outcast in her own community for being one of those “ hoodoo women ,” who can curse you or cast you under her beguiling spell , Marlowe is shunned at every turn . Six months ago , a whirlwind romance in Mexico led Marlowe to marry the man she thought she ’ d spend the rest of her life with . For Marlowe and Eddie , there is no such thing as trouble in paradise . But late one night , when Marlowe witnesses her husband putting the body of a dead man in the trunk of his car , the illusion comes crashing down around her and she knows she has to move fast before the devil comes calling once again .
Now , Lucy and Marlowe must come together to find out where and who Eddie really is , and help each other through the threat he poses . There ’ s nothing more dangerous than a woman scorned ... except for two women scorned who are willing to put their pasts behind them and band together to take one bad man down ...
