  Rachel thought she'd escaped her father. But now he's found her. 
   
   
   
  Rachel was barely more than an infant when her father, Dennis, murdered her mother and sister. In prison ever since, Dennis has never said one word about why he killed two family members—or why he spared Rachel. 
   
   
   
  Now a grown woman, Rachel has done everything she can to leave her terrible past behind. She has changed her identity and is now happily married to the love of her life, Dan. But there is a dark cloud on the horizon. 
   
   
   
  Dennis is due to be released from prison and Rachel worries that he will kill again, that he may even come after her. And sure enough, a series of murders begins around the time of his release. 
   
   
   
  Rachel is terrified, convinced that her father is stalking her, certain she will be his next victim. Even worse, Dan thinks she is being paranoid and won't do anything to protect her. 
   
   
   
  Isolated, vulnerable, Rachel spends her days in an agony of terror and suspense. But as bad as this is, the truth is even worse. Because Rachel only has part of the picture, and what she is actually facing is far more horrifying than even her wildest nightmares . . .

  ABOUT THIS EPISODE 
   
   
   
  Detective Malcolm Khalaji is at a loss. 
   
   
   
  For the second time in his life, he wasn't there when his lover needed him. And with Seong-Jae Yoon on leave pending an internal investigation, Malcolm doesn't know what to do with a shattered partner and boyfriend who's retreated from him into a dark and broken place. This time he's determined to be there no matter what Seong-Jae needs, even if it means taking time off from the pressures of their job to hold Seong-Jae through every moment of trauma, of guilt, of self-recrimination. 
   
   
   
  Until a frantic phone call from Seong-Jae's parents destroys any hope of peace. Because Seong-Jae's younger sister is missing—and there's only one place she would go. 
   
   
   
  Yet even if the desperate search breaks Seong-Jae's numbness, it's the warmth of family that brings him back from a black and dangerous edge—and shows Malcolm a side to Seong-Jae he never could have imagined. If each player in this game is a chess piece, then none other than Edmund Bishop is a pawn, sacrificed to save his queen. Yet is Lillienne Wellington really the one pulling the strings? 
   
   
   
  Or is someone else trying to eliminate Bishop for their own dire ends?

  When the ruthless and universally despised Wall Street titan Sigsbee Manderson is found dead on the grounds of his English estate, a bullet through his eye, the financial markets crash—but no one sheds a tear. 
  Enter Philip Trent, a brilliant artist and amateur sleuth, who travels to White Gables to cover the sensation for a London newspaper. But what seems at first like a straightforward assassination quickly devolves into a labyrinth of bizarre contradictions. Why was the impeccably groomed billionaire fully dressed, down to his watch and tie, yet missing his false teeth? What drove him to pace the grounds at the crack of dawn? And what secret lies behind the strained, loveless silence of his beautiful young widow? 
  The Woman in Black is a classic cerebral mystery where every scratch, every footprint, and every drop of whiskey poured in the dead of night holds a clue. Edward Richardson weaves a tale of high-society scandal and calculated intellect that will keep you guessing until the very last deduction.
