Suspense

Journalist Whit McKenna is recovering from a harrowing assignment in Afghanistan. Seeking refuge, she moves with her two daughters to a small southern Oregon town and takes up work as a crime reporter for the local newspaper. After only a month on the job, she’s assigned to cover the murder of a famous actress.

Thrust into the media firestorm, Whit’s PTSD kicks in full-force, confusing her mind with disturbing flashbacks—each one exposing repressed memories of her nightmare in Afghanistan. But years of journalistic instinct strengthens her resolve, and with dogged determination she pursues the sensational story.

Soon two more high profile members of the community end up in the morgue with the same gruesome detail found on the actress. Medical science seems to be playing a twisted role in this ongoing, deadly drama, which has Whit joining forces with M.E. Detective Katie Riggs to stop the tragic crimes.

Operating quid pro quo they follow a trail of deception.

And with each front-page article Whit writes, she comes ever closer to a vicious killer; a killer who has proven they will stop at nothing to silence their chosen victims.
