The new police chief in a small, but troubled town on the southern Oregon coast finds both love, and a deadly remnant from his past.
A random and sadistic killer stalks the summer beaches of Oregon at the height of the tourist season. An enigma to the local police, the already troubled town of Cutter Point, on the southern Oregon coast, is thrown into panic when the killer's body count of abducted and murdered young boys begins to climb.
As newly hired police chief Kevin Kearnes wages an uphill battle for control of his agency, fighting corrupt city officials and even some members of his own department, a chance meeting with a beautiful and secretive woman leads to love, giving the recently divorced and damaged Kearnes a renewed sense of hope about his future.
That is, until and old horror from his past resurfaces, manifesting itself in the same murder cases he's been investigating, and he begins a slow descent into his own personal hell of fear and self-doubt over his ability to still do his job.
Soon, the discovery and meaning of a child's innocent toy, found half buried in the sand at a crime scene, puts Kearnes, the woman he loves, and the killer himself on a deadly collision course. And Kevin Kearnes is about to learn that the most dangerous secrets to keep...are the ones you don't know you have.
