Shaw's Consequence

Being this father's daughter, is murder. Marcel Shaw is an exacting man; a man of high standard and high promise. He is a man of business, a husband and a father. He will stop at nothing. He is an obsessive bastard. He will do what must be done to further his course, no matter how distasteful the task, he will never lose. This is his secret. Sidney is the eldest of three sisters born into the world their father has created. She longs to escape from beneath the shadow he casts, to find her own way. Instead, after Erika vanishes, and her mother slips deep into a bottle; after Sara is assaulted, and her father abandons them, Sidney endures and holds together the fragments of her family. Her life is a tenuous balance between hope and despair. One more trial may break her. This is her secret. Randy Thomas loves Sidney. A fatherless young man pulled into the world of wealth and privilege. He is Marcel’s man, trapped in a misguided loyalty. He is a free man caught in a life of subservience. There is a power in his past and a purpose to his future. He knows nothing of this. Randy is a fraud, he is a killer, he is a mystery. This is his secret. Vincent Slowly Bear is a guide; he will show Sidney the things she needs to see. He will tear Randy apart and make him over again. He was dead long before he was murdered. He runs with the One Wind; Slowly Bear is not a man. This is his secret. And secrets, no matter how closely held, always have consequences.
