Truth has deadly consequences. Twenty-six years ago, even before a series of brutal
murders rocked the idyllic town of Bowers Inlet, Cassie
Burke lost her parents, her sister, and nearly her own life
to a transient befriended by her father. Back then, Cassie
was a scared kid--now she's a homicide cop. Back then, the
suspect was caught and convicted--he died in prison. But
now the killing has started again. And all signs indicate
that the Bayside Strangler has come back for more. With too many victims and too few suspects, Cassie has her
hands full investigating the case, while working through
the old trauma it has brought to the surface. Luckily, FBI
agent Rick Cisco is dispatched to lend support. Together,
Cassie and Rick must uncover the link between the dark past
and the dangerous present to bring this small town's long
nightmare to an end. If they fail, an elusive fiend will
slip back into the shadows...to watch and wait--and kill
another day. In matters of crime, there are many versions of the
truth.
