A murder shatters the quiet of a small beach community, drawing a local emergency doctor and an enigmatic FBI profiler into a dangerous investigation.
When old evidence surfaces on a new victim, ASAC Lincoln Frazer is determined to prevent delays in the execution of a convicted serial killer. But as more young women are brutally murdered, it becomes clear the current killer knows the original crimes all too well.
Dr. Isadora Campbell returned to the Outer Banks after her mother’s death, leaving the Army to raise her troubled teenage sister. She is determined to protect the fragile life she has rebuilt, but her past holds a secret someone is willing to kill for.
Forced together by the investigation, Frazer and Izzy are reluctantly drawn to one another. As the truth behind Izzy’s past comes to light, trust becomes as dangerous as the killer closing in. When the murderer strikes again, Frazer must race to stop the pattern from repeating—before Izzy becomes the next victim.
