Three and a half years ago former Grant County medical examiner Sara Linton moved to Atlanta
hoping to leave her tragic past behind her. Now working as a doctor in Atlanta's Grady Hospital
she is starting to piece her life together. But when a severely wounded young woman is brought
in to the emergency room she finds herself drawn back into a world of violence and terror. The
woman has been hit by a car but naked and brutalised it's clear that she has been the prey of
a twisted mind. When Special Agent Will Trent of the Criminal Investigation Team
returns to the scene of the accident he stumbles on a torture chamber buried deep beneath the
earth. And this hidden house of horror reveals a ghastly truth - Sara's patient is just the
first victim of a sick sadistic killer. Wrestling the case away from the local police chief
Will and his partner Faith Mitchell find themselves at the centre of a grisly murder hunt. And
Sara Will and Faith - each with their own wounds and their own secrets - are all that stand
between a madman and his next crime...
