Her heart races as a noise from downstairs wakes her. She checks every room in her small home, but it's not until she returns to the safety of her bedroom does she see movement. She's not alone. And nobody can help her now... Writing scrawled on the wall of Sheriff Jenna Alton's office overnight leads her and her deputy David Kane to a secluded house on the outskirts of town. Inside, Jenna is devastated to find a much-loved local resident lying in a pool of blood, stab wounds covering her lifeless body. What monster would attack a defenseless woman living alone? With no trace of the killer at the scene, the deadly message written on Jenna's door is her only clue. But as the small town grieves, it leads her to a contractor who recently had access to the woman's home.

She thinks a twisted killer has been watching them, waiting for the perfect time to strike. But before she can make her next move, one of her own team is found unconscious and covered in the blood of a third female victim-a knife inches away from his hand. Pulse racing, Jenna questions her shaken deputy, who can't explain why he was in the woman's house. Could he really be a killer, or is someone playing an evil game?
