Impact

Florence Winslow wakes up in hospital to the news that she has killed a man. On the way to visit her in-laws in rural Connecticut, a car comes out of an unseen junction and ploughs into her. The driver is killed, and Florence is lucky to be alive.

Dylan Bodine, a young detective in the Torrington PD, feels she was extremely lucky. Too lucky? Something about the accident doesn’t add up. As he and his partner, experienced Senior Detective Carrie Fuller, whose last case this is, start to dig deeper, they realize that Florence isn’t just anyone. She’s the estranged daughter-in-law of Lyndon Winslow, head of one of the wealthiest and most influential families in America.

Why had she been invited to visit Lyndon and his children after all these years apart? Why was she taking that particular slower route to the family house? Why was the dead driver carrying no ID? When they learn that Lyndon is dying and his vast fortune is at stake, they realize that things are a lot murkier than they seem and no one is to be trusted.
