Then the past and present collide. A woman is found savagely murdered. An outsider passing through town vanishes. Each step closer to the truth exposes yet another layer of deceit, and Avery learns that a terrible evil resides in this peaceful Southern town. An evil that is willing to keep the town’s sins a secret—at any cost.
