Chiamato in una fattoria isolata per controllare un'anziana vedova, lo sceriffo Bree Taggert scopre un brutale duplice omicidio. Una delle vittime è Eugene Oscar, l'ex vice sceriffo corrotto e rancoroso che Bree ha recentemente costretto ad abbandonare il dipartimento. Grazie all'aiuto dell'investigatore criminale Matt Flynn, Bree scopre di non essere l'unica ad avere un precedente preoccupante con Oscar. Ma qualcuno non vuole che Bree riporti alla luce il passato. Diventa quindi il bersaglio della campagna malata e subdola di uno sconosciuto, creata per distruggere la sua reputazione, la sua carriera e la sua famiglia, oltre alla sua nuova relazione con Matt. A peggiorare le cose, sembra proprio che Bree sia la principale sospettata dell'omicidio di Oscar. Quando il suo vicesceriffo scompare durante le indagini, Bree rifiuta di fare marcia indietro. La vita del suo collega e il futuro di Bree dipendono dalla scoperta di un assassino che nutre una rabbia vendicativa, ma Bree combatterà allo stremo delle sue forze per evitare che ci sia un'altra vittima.

La scoperta di resti umani porta alla luce un altro incubo del passato dello sceriffo Bree Taggert in un thriller dell'Autrice Melinda Leigh. Ventisette anni fa, il padre dello sceriffo Bree Taggert uccise sua madre e poi se stesso. Ora Bree e suo fratello minore, Adam, hanno trovato ossa umane nel terreno della loro fattoria di famiglia abbandonata. I resti sono quelli di un uomo e una donna, entrambi assassinati nello stesso orribile modo. Quando l'indagine determina che gli omicidi sono avvenuti trent'anni prima, il padre di Bree diventa un sospettato, costringendo Bree a rivivere la brutale notte che ha cercato di dimenticare per la maggior parte della sua vita. L'unico altro indagato è un improbabile occupante abusivo della fattoria Taggert che afferma di conoscere segreti sul passato di Bree. Ma quando scompare misteriosamente e la nipote di Bree viene rapita, il vecchio caso si surriscalda. Bree sembra aver alimentato la rabbia di un assassino disposto a tutto pur di mantenere segreta la sua identità e le sue motivazioni. E per proteggere tutti quelli che ama, Bree dovrà dare la caccia a questo astuto omicida.
