FBI agent Nell Flynn hasn’t been home in ten years. Nell and her father, Homicide Detective Martin Flynn, have never had much of a relationship. And Suffolk County will always be awash in memories of her mother, who was brutally murderer when Nell was just seven. But when MArtin dies in a motorcycle accident, Nell must return home to close his estate, and in the process she ends up becoming involved in the last case her father worked: and investigation into the brutal murder of two young women.

The further Nell digs, the more she finds herself plagued by doubts surrounding her mother’s death, and her own role in exonerating her father in that very case. Nell can’t help but ask questions about who killed the two women and why. But she may not like the answers she finds - not just about those she loves, but about herself.
