But as lives hang in the balance, their emotions become a dangerous liability. With the killer's twisted agenda slowly coming to light, Jenna and Max must confront uncomfortable realities about themselves, Hadley, and the very foundations they stand upon.

Racing against time, they must decipher the nefarious scheme before more bodies fall. Yet for two fractured souls thrust into darkness, the scars of this nightmarish case may never fully mend.
