Some truths should stay buried...
When a series of brutal murders rocks the city, Dr. Lillian Hayes, a forensic psychologist, is drawn into a chilling game of cat and mouse with a killer known only as The Collector-a predator who leaves a grotesque signature behind.
But as Lillian digs deeper, long-buried memories begin to resurface-fragments of a childhood she cannot fully remember and a darkness she thought she had escaped.
The closer she gets to the truth, the more the lines blur between hunter and hunted, past and present. And as the body count rises, one question haunts her:
What if the killer isn't a stranger at all?
