A gripping thriller of betrayal, vengeance, and the fight for redemption.

After a disastrous fourth tour overseas, Army Colonel Vernon Matheson is forced into civilian life with a barely honorable discharge and a fractured mind. Hoping to rebuild, he returns to Charleston only to walk into a nightmare: his house trashed, a dead woman on his bedroom floor, and his wife and five-year-old daughter gone without a trace.

Instead of allies, Vern finds resistance at every turn. His grandparents are evasive, the lead investigator seems determined to frame him, and time is running out. Into the chaos steps Lee Danforth, a sharp attorney assigned to his case and the last person Vern wants digging through his shattered life. But as they uncover Angela Matheson's double life of drugs, secrets, and betrayal, they discover something far darker: a calculating killer who has been stalking this family for months, orchestrating their destruction.

With a hurricane bearing down on the South Carolina coast, Vern and Lee must race to find his daughter before the storm and the man hunting them bring everything crashing down.
