The water ripples as a girl's body escapes the reeds and floats silently upwards, her beautiful face—blue eyes frozen open, skin as white as snow—breaking the surface. It's too late; this innocent soul has taken her final breath. When camp counselor Carolyn Sable's body is discovered in a lake beside Eagle Ridge Summer Camp, Detective Katie Scott must stay focused. Having spent joyful weeks at that camp with her best friend Jenny, whose disappearance still haunts her, Katie is determined to find answers for Carolyn's grieving family. As she investigates, the shocking discovery of two more bodies complicates the case, leading her to suspect a serial killer is at work. Katie's blood runs cold upon finding newspaper clippings about her own past cases near one of the victims. Was this twisted killer targeting her? Carolyn, beloved by campers and staff, had recently resigned, and Katie believes this is crucial to solving the mystery. A tragic accident involving children weeks before Carolyn's departure adds another layer. However, when Katie's carefully planned trap to catch the killer backfires, she finds herself in grave danger, unable to trust even her own team. Can she survive long enough to solve the toughest case of her career, and how many more lives will be lost before she does?
