For American Stephanie Cahill, Bella Vista is a new beginningβa chance to put her painful past behind her. Yet, from the moment to first body is discovered at the site of an archeological dig, Stephanie feels as if she's being watched, followed, studied...hunted.
Archeologist Grant Petersen senses something odd about this dig, something that has him locking his door at night. And now, the echoes of a burial site's ancient legend can be found in the chilling signature of a killer on the loose.

For nothing in Bella Vista is what it seems. No one can be trusted. And those closest to Stephanie may prove the most dangerous of all...
