    Carol Ann Duffy's 'Rapture' is about the loss and rediscovery of love in all its aspects - erotic, intellectual, emotional.

    When one of her best friends is found dead and her death declared a suicide, Liv decides that if no one else will find the truth, she will. Even if that means working with the woman whose heart she broke long ago. Ryan Olsen never expected Liv to come back…and she definitely didn’t expect to still be in love with her. She also didn’t expect to keep running into her at crime scenes. But when the “suicide” seems to be tied to two missing teenagers, and the Chief of Police is determined to do anything to keep Ryan out of the investigation, Ryan’s gut tells her there’s more to it - and Liv may hold the key. Plus, it may be the only way Ryan can keep Liv out of trouble. But things are not what they seem, and both of them may be the target of a killer that is far worse than they know. Will they get their second chance? Or will they fall prey to a killer determined to tear them apart?

Time is a river endlessly coursing, shallow in many places, deep for long miles, and, finally, deadly as the hurricane that engulfs and destroys the slave vessel, 'Henrietta Marie.' YABO calls our ghosts back and holds us accountable for memory."--Cheryl Clarke
