The little girl trembles as a pair of dark eyes watch her every move. She's been told to dig a hole big enough for a body and her heart races as she wonders who it's for. She wants to run, but she knows she'll be caught. So she fights back tears and begins to dig...
When police stop a car in the small town of Hilldale, they shudder as they pop the trunk and look inside. Covered in thick plastic, the body of a man lies totally still. In the car sit two women and a twelve-year-old girl, all refusing to speak.
As
Detective
Eve Bennet
is called in to investigate, she's struck by the women's calm demeanor. No stranger to the secretive local community, Eve knows the women won't speak to her, but she's sure she can get the young girl to tell her what happened.
When ten-year-old
Beth
finally opens up and begs for help, Eve's blood runs cold. If the man in the trunk is an eminent member of the local church, as Beth says he is, they could all be in serious danger.
But Eve will stop at nothing to make sure Beth is safe, and when her search leads to a family home on a quiet little street, the last thing she expects is to come face to face with someone from her own dark past.
Will she face her demons and unravel the truth behind the man in the trunk? And can she save herself and Beth from the evil that haunts their lives?
