When police rescue five-year-old Jenna Thompson from the closet where she's been held captive, they tell her she's lucky. Compared to her family, it's true. But even with their killer dead, Jenna can't find peace twenty-five years later. 
 
Jenna returns to Nashville, the city where she lost so much. Instead of closure, she finds a new horror. Detective Rick Morgan needs Jenna's expertise in identifying the skeletal remains of a young child. 
 
Now other women are dying. And as the links between these brutal killings and Jenna's past becomes clear, she knows this time, a madman will leave no survivors.

He promised to kill her. One night four years ago, Leah Carson's husband almost succeeded. Phillip stabbed her twenty-three times before fleeing. The police are sure he's dead. But fear won't let Leah believe it.

Leah has a new veterinary practice and a new life with no ties to her nightmare. But State Detective Alex Morgan suspects something. And when another woman's body is found, stabbed twenty-three times, Leah knows her past has found her...

Rachel's investigation is about to reveal answers - but at a price she never thought to pay. And this is a murderer is ready to show her just how vicious the truth can be...
