    Membre de la police scientifique de Boston, Darby McCormick est aussi efficace dans son laboratoire que sur les scènes de crime, où elle n'a pas son pareil pour faire parler les indices. Envoyée sur les lieux d'un enlèvement, Darby découvre un témoin inattendu : une femme squelettique, vêtue de haillons, désorientée et terrorisée. L'inconnue, disparue depuis plusieurs années, aurait été enfermée dans un cachot obscur et sordide. Au fil de son enquête minutieuse, Darby comprend que les victimes seraient des dizaines à travers le pays, enlevées par un psychopathe dont les ressources et l'habileté défient l'entendement. Hantée par le sort de toutes ces femmes qui lui rappellent un souvenir traumatisant de son adolescence, Darby décide de partir en quête d'autres survivantes. Elle ne se doute pas qu'elle s'apprête à plonger au cœur de la perversité humaine... Dans ce thriller trépidant servi par des personnages complexes, Chris Mooney joue brillamment sur tous les registres, de l'émotion pure à la terreur.
