Sibly Adams, blind college professor is drugged, raped, savagely mutilated and left for dead in the toilet of the local diner. Dr Sara Linton, the local pediatrician and medical examiner, discovers the body and is horrified by the results of the autopsy. Sara’s ex-husband, Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver, has no leads and no suspects when a missing college coed is found raped, drugged and crucified. Then detective Lena Adams, Sibyl' s twin sister, who has vowed vengeance is abducted. Is there a serial killer in their midst? Sara begins to suspect the rapes and murders may be connected with her own rape twelve years ago. Even though their relations are strained Sara and Jeffrey must search into the past to find the identity of the killer before he can strike again -- with Sara as his target.

This is a fast paced thriller with a very inventive plot. There are many suspects to keep the reader in suspense. Sara is a strong woman who is struggling to overcome the trauma of her past experience and cope with her strained and ambivalent relationship with her ex-husband, Chief Tolliver
