At dawn, a young couple lies on their backs by a dying fire. They are holding hands and their eyes are open, but their bodies are already cold.
When a park ranger stumbles upon the bodies of Valerie and Tyler Yates in the woods, Detective Josie Quinn suspects it is more than just an accidental poisoning. The post-mortem proves her right – a pendant was brutally shoved down Valerie's throat before she died.
While searching the surrounding area, Josie's team discovers a third sleeping bag, suggesting that someone else might have been at the fire that night. Was it an unknown missing victim? Or a suspect on the run? Could it be the woman who, moments later, ran out of the woods and straight under the wheels of Josie's car? The clues lead Josie to places hidden deep in the forest – to a network of caves and a farm off the grid, where people go to hide. There, she meets a young girl with terrified eyes and bandaged wrists who knows more than she is letting on. The next day, however, she is found dead. And with an identical pendant… Josie must uncover the meaning of the deadly ornament and catch the twisted killer before another innocent person loses their life. Or is it already too late, and will darkness consume everything?
