Six months after nearly losing everything to the men who
kidnapped his girlfriend's ten-year-old son, Elvis Cole is
slowly rebuilding his life when he receives an ominous call
from the LAPD. An unidentified body has been found in a
seedy Los Angeles motel and Elvis is needed urgently at the
scene. When he arrives to identify the dead man, cops
scrutinize Cole's reaction, but Elvis is unable to help --
he has never seen the man before. Finally, Elvis is told
that the subject was still alive when the first officer
responded. Before he died, the old man claimed that Elvis
Cole was his son.
Cole turns to the one person who can help him navigate
the minefield of his past -- his longtime partner and
confidant, Joe Pike. As the two men launch a feverish search
for the dead man's identity, Elvis struggles between wanting
to believe he's found his father at last -- and allowing his
suspicions to hold him back. With each clue they uncover, a
frightening picture begins to emerge about who Elvis Cole's
father might have been, and the terrible crimes he might
have committed.
Drawing ever-closer to a deeply buried and violent
secret, Cole and Pike are unaware that they've also awakened
a sleeping monster -- a merciless killer who has
meticulously prepared for the day he would be found, setting
an intricate ambush that is guaranteed to destroy anyone who
comes looking. As Elvis and Joe approach the true identity
of the dead man, they follow a treacherous path lined with
anguish and deception, straight into Elvis's worst nightmare.
