Eve Duncan is no stranger to grief. Her daughter, Bonnie, was brutally murdered years ago, and her body has never been found.

Now, Eve is embroiled in a new case involving a young girl at the center of a dangerous game. A cunning killer is on the hunt, and he knows just how to manipulate Eve to get what he wants.
