      Specialista di psicologia criminale, nella sua carriera Sylvia Strange si è trovata ad affrontare i casi più complessi e disperati, ma quello che le si presenta ora nella persona della piccola Serena sembra quasi impossibile. Muta, terrorizzata e chiusa in se stessa, Serena è appena scampata a un incidente di macchina nel deserto intorno a Santa Fe. Sono molti i misteri che la circondano: è un'immigrata clandestina dal vicino Messico? Cosa contiene il misterioso quadernetto che tiene gelosamente con sé? E perché di comporta come se fosse inseguita da demoni assassini? Quando un cadavere viene rintracciato non lontano dal luogo dell'incidente e Serena subisce un tentativo di omicidio, Sylvia capisce che quei demoni sono vivi e reali, che la bambina è l'innocente pedina di una spietata lotta di potere. E comincia a indagare...
