When they were children, Sean Devine, Jimmy Marcus, and
Dave Boyle were friends. But then a strange car pulled tip
to their street. One boy got into the car, two did not,
and something terrible happened - something that ended
their friendship and changed all three boys forever.
Twenty-five years later, Sean Devine is a homicide
detective. Jimmy Marcus is an ex-con who owns a corner
store. And Dave Boyle is trying to hold his marriage
together and keep his demons at bay - demons that urge him
to do terrible things.
When Jimmy Marcuss daughter is found murdered, Sean Devine
is assigned to the case. His personal life unraveling, he
must go back into a world he thought hed left behind to
confront not only the violence, of the present but the
nightmares of his past. His investigation brings him into
conflict with Jimmy Marcus, who finds that his old
criminal impulses tempt him to solve the crime with brutal
justice. And then there is Dave Boyle, who came home the
night Jimmys daughter died covered with someone elses
blood.
While Sean Devine attempts to use the law to return peace
and order to the neighborhood, Jimmy Marcus finds his need
for vengeance pushing him ever closer to a moral abyss
from which lie wont be able to return, and Daves wife,
Celeste, sleeps at night with a man she fears may very
well be a monster. a monster who fathered her child and
hides his true nature from everyone, possibly even himself.
