Book Synopsis

A killer has come out of hiding in this haunting novel by New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards.

Pawleys Island hides a dark history of a shocking cold case: the murder of a local girl and the strange disappearance of her two friends. This unsolved crime could be journalist Nicole Sullivan's big break, so she works intimately with Police Chief Joe Franconi to get the story straight.

But their investigation takes a shocking turn when another young woman is murdered. As the body count rises, so does Nicole's fear that the killer has returned to bury a terrifying secret--and to resurrect the ghost of a crime long thought dead.
