When Jess Harris moved back to her Alabama hometown, she
thought she'd left her past behind her. But the blood bath
the new Major Crimes deputy chief finds at a murder scene is
beyond even the savagery of Eric Spears, the serial killer
who now haunts Jess's life with terrifying text messages.
Amid eerie echoes of the Charles Manson massacre, Jess
investigates the dismemberment of a cop's wife while her
baby lay sleeping down the hall.
The discovery of two more headless victims makes Jess wonder
if it's a gang-related slaying, a personal vendetta . . . or
something else. And the sudden reappearance of her
ex-husband makes her question her future with Chief of
Police Dan Burnett. Now as the net widens to include a
shocking suspect, Jess realizes that the identity of the
killer may lie with an autistic eight-year-old boy. With
inner-city tensions at an all-time high and the community
calling for blood, Jess must race to save an innocent
child-and prevent a final, horrifying act of rage.
