Four years after the apparent suicide of Alice Delgado, daughter of one of Albuquerque’s top racing drivers, her younger sister Lily vanishes. When two of Lily’s classmates are found dead, Detectives David Temeke and Malin Santiago are pulled into a chilling case that leads them to an elite boarding school on the banks of the Rio Grande.
There, behind a façade of privilege and silence, they uncover whispers of occult rituals and a mysterious ancient book – clues that ignite a disturbing chain of events and unravel long-buried truths.
As tensions mount within the department and the body count rises, Temeke and Santiago must race to stop a killer before another young life is lost.
