One night has the power to change your life forever. Susan Alvarez was made all too aware of this fact the night the Songbird chose her family.
"Songbird" was the name given to the serial killer that terrorized the West Coast for nearly two decades. The Songbird claimed more than forty lives, including Susan's entire family, before they dropped off the map.
It's been fourteen years since Susan lost her family and she is still trying to pick up the pieces when her best friend Tabitha comes back to town. Susan's momentary joy is quickly stifled when the news hits that police have made a connection between a recent spate of murders and the work of the Songbird.
Susan may have been too young to stop him then, but she is determined to catch the person responsible for destroying her world.
