When Boston detective D. D.

Is Flora a victim or a vigilante? And with her firsthand knowledge of criminal behavior, could she hold the key to rescuing a missing college student whose abduction has rocked Boston?

So, when human remains are found at the remote hunting cabin where Trinity was last seen, Josie can only assume the worst.

Dusting the crime scene for prints, a name smudged into the side of a nearby car is the first in a trail of clues Trinity left for Josie.
