A pair of hikers find a tarp-wrapped body in a clearing in the woods. When a search in the surrounding area yields two more, Sheriff Bree Taggert knows they've stumbled onto a serial killer's dumping ground.

With the help of investigator Matt Flynn, Bree works the case. They go to interview Jana, the best friend of one of the victims. But when they arrive at her apartment, it's been ransacked and set on fire. And Jana is missing.

It's clear the killer is escalating. To make matters worse, he threatens Bree's family and a young mother vanishes. Will Bree and Matt uncover the link between the victims before more women die?
