A decades-old photo. An unknown child. A secret someone would kill to keep buried. When private investigator Martina Monroe is hired to identify the infant in a decades-old photograph, the case seems simple enough. But the search leads her back to the hometown she swore she’d never return to—a place haunted by old wounds, buried lies, and people desperate to keep the past hidden. As Martina digs deeper, the questions begin to multiply. Who is the child in the photo? Why does no one want her asking questions? And what happened all those years ago that still has the town living in fear?

Is she a cop with a cause or a devil in disguise? Terra Kris failed when she was supposed to look the other way during an assignment.

Where she goes, they can follow. Until she figures out what is going on. Then there will be hell to pay.

Martina Monroe knows some cases leave scars that never heal. After a year that nearly destroyed her life and threatened her family, she’s sworn off anything that could pull her back into danger. That is, until a desperate and heartbroken father walks into her office. His twenty-three-year-old daughter, Lena, is missing. The police are stalled, and he believes time is running out. Martina tries to hand the case to another investigator, but the father refuses to give up.

Desperate for closure, Con demands the killer reveal where his sister's remains are buried. But The Sandman refuses to talk.
