About the book
A brutal murderer who enjoys inflicting pain has become fixated on forensic expert Gwen Marcey and her daughter.
After Gwen's dog brings home a human skull and leads her to a secluded cabin in the forests of Montana, she realizes that a serial killer is lurking in her community. The discovery of a young girl, barely clinging to life and showing signs of torture, cements Gwen's belief that the killer is a deranged individual.
What troubles Gwen the most is the striking resemblance between the victim and her own daughter.
As she delves deeper into the investigation, Gwen uncovers a link to a neo-Nazi bombing in Washington state, where her only connection is revealed. The extremist group holds Gwen responsible for betraying their race-not-grace ideology, marking her as a traitor.
With the killer's vindictive motives becoming apparent, Gwen is faced with a race against time to stop him from carrying out his threat to destroy her and the last remnants of her family. Utilizing her forensic expertise, Gwen must outwit the killer before it's too late.
