A headless body washes up on the shores of western Oregon... And newly-minted Detective Ivy Bishop has been assigned the case. Having been abandoned by her family when she was twelve and navigating much of her young life on her own before joining the force, Ivy has a lot to prove. Discovering what really happened to her family has plagued Ivy for years. And the trauma of the night she can’t remember has left her unable to touch another person without experiencing violent panic attacks. Begrudgingly accepting a new partner, Ivy is pushed to the limit of what she thinks she can handle in order to track this killer down. Except, when more bodies start showing up, both detectives realize the problem is bigger than they thought. And when Ivy learns the truth behind the killer’s motives, it will not only tear open old wounds she long thought had been sealed, but connect back to that night fifteen years ago when her world fell apart. The one night that changed everything. Tick, tock, Ivy. Time is running out.
