Sara Linton, medical examiner in the small town of Heartsdale, GA,
is called out to an apparent suicide on the local college campus.
The mutilated body provides little in the way of clues -- and the
college authorities are eager to avoid a scandal -- but for Sara
and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, things don't add up.

Two more suspicious suicides follow, and a young woman is brutally
attacked. For Sara, the violence strikes far too close to home. And
as Jeffrey pursues the sadistic killer, he discovers that ex-police
detective Lena Adams, now a security guard on campus, may be in
possession of crucial information. But, bruised and angered by her
expulsion from the force, Lena seems to be barely capable of
protecting herself, let alone saving the next
victim.
