On a hot summer night in 1980, two-year-old Audrey Cutler was snatched from her bedroom and never seen again.
Twenty-six years later, her brother, Sammy, fatefully crosses paths with the man the police failed to convict for her abduction and murder. A few weeks later, that man is dead, murdered.
Private attorney Jason Kolarich, Sammy's long-lost childhood friend, is engaged to defend him. But can he trust the people who hired him?
As the clock ticks for both his brother and his childhood friend, Jason must discover the shocking truth in order to save them and, finally, to save himself.
