Pearl has come up missing. Her house is full of blood but her body is no where to be found. Kateri has been called to the scene. Then she discovers a little girl, Birdie, locked in a closet. No one knew Birdie existed. She is possibly the only witness to Pearl’s disappearance. Then…Birdie is taken. But, Kateri is not going to stop till she discovers the truth.

Then there is Shannon. He has had a terrible life. His father is in prison because he tried to kill Shannon and his mother in a fire. Shannon is struggling to leave the past behind come into his own. Then tragedy strikes…again.
