35 parts Ongoing MatureSeattle has always had its ghosts-the missing women, the unsolved disappearances, the cases that fade into cold files. But Detective Sarah Navarro knows better. These women didn't just vanish. They were taken. For years, she's hunted the shadow lurking beneath the city's neon glow, a predator known only as The Watcher. He doesn't just kill. He keeps his victims alive in the digital world, updating their social media accounts long after they're gone-responding to messages, posting photos, making their families believe they're still out there. But Sarah isn't fooled. She knows he's real. And she's running out of time to stop him.
Then there's Emily Monroe-the girl who got away. The only one who has ever survived him. She was just nineteen when she escaped his grasp, bloodied and broken, running barefoot through the streets in the dead of night. But she doesn't remember everything. And she doesn't want to. For years, she's buried the trauma, drowning it in alcohol and pretending the past is behind her. But when a new girl disappears-one who eerily resembles Emily at that age-her carefully constructed world begins to crack.
Sarah and Emily have never met, but their paths are about to collide. Because The Watcher is evolving. He's adapting. And he's been watching all along.
As Sarah pieces together decades of disappearances and Emily unearths long-buried memories, the truth slowly emerges. This isn't just another case. This is a game. And The Watcher is always one step ahead.
Because in his mind, the hunt is never over.
And the prettiest ones always cry the most.
