(Stewart Sisters Trilogy); book #2 Ross's latest, the second in a trilogy begun with the far stronger Out of t he Mist, follows famous country singer Lark Stewart through perils worthy o f the silent screen's Pauline. They begin when Lark's longtime bandmate Dan ny Murphy is shot in New Orleans. Briefly suspected of the crime, Lark is t hen released, but not before a sadist who has stalked her escapes from jail . Her family sends her girlhood sweetheart, Lucas McCloud, to protect her. A onetime sniper and FBI agent turned furniture maker, Lucas's lifelong lov e for Lark-derailed first by teenage folly and later by his dangerous work- has never died. Though their return to their birthplace in the Smokies re-i gnites their romance, Lark remains under threat from the stalker, a schemin g ex-husband and Danny's still-unidentified attacker. In place of the color ful history and family humor found in Ross's previous installment, this boo k offers a jumble of overcomplicated backstory, inconsequential characters and melodramatic plot twists, including a temporary and unlikely bout of am nesia and a plane crash. Crowded with contrivance, the story never finds ei ther its rhythm or its heart; to the end, Lark and Lucas remain puppets of the frantic plot rather than compelling characters in and of themselves.
