Detective Sergeant Hunter McKenna is on trial, charged with negligent homicide
after her investigation into the suspicious death of a local teenager leads to
more deaths and personal tragedy.
Hunter faces accusations in the courtroom, and is tormented by her own guilt
over personal choices she’s made. The community’s grief demands someone to
blame, and Hunter can’t deny she’s haunted by regret.
As her partner, DS Noah Wilmott, continues to investigate, he wonders if the
nightmares plaguing his partner are really Hunter’s subconscious, piecing
things together, or something more, and when he follows a hunch it leads to
answers that will stun a community.

Why do we hurt the ones we love the most?
Vinny Shepherd is a girl with an identity crisis. Her whole life she’s been
pulled in different directions, between divorced parents, between her own
interests and what her mother wants her to be like. After so many years of
being molded and pressured by a controlling mother, she’s lost herself along
the way.
Now, with a dominating friend like Ivy Dorn – who bullies and controls those
around her to fulfill her whims – Vinny finds herself doing things she could
never have imagined.
Like what happened to Jonah at the ruins…
Like what happened the night her best friend died.
When one death leads to another, Vinny’s life is ripped apart. As her mother
spearheads the witch hunt against DS McKenna, Vinny struggled with her guilt
and grief. What she knows could change the outcome of the trial, but can she
find the strength to stand up against a dominating mother who’s controlled her
entire life?
