When three bodies surface in a remote waterway outside Lincoln, California, the Placer County Sheriff’s Office is thrust into a case far beyond their reach. The victims—women in their late 20s to early 30s—bear unusual markings suggesting foreign origin, and their deaths send shock waves through the quiet rural community. Within days, local investigators run into several dead ends before making a discovery so disturbing the sheriff turns to the FBI for assistance.

Fresh off one of their most unusual cases, Special Agents Sadie Gray and Brad Tulle are assigned to a task force run by Violent Crimes veteran Nathan Rivas—a no-nonsense investigator whose cold precision brings a sharp edge to a rather upsetting case.

As the trio works to identify the victims and trace their histories, they uncover the roots of a sprawling criminal network that reaches deep into local business, law enforcement, and politics. What begins as a local homicide investigation quickly escalates into one of the most complex and terrifying cases Sadie has ever faced.

With each new lead, it becomes clear: these murders are just the beginning. As the body count rises and a sadistic new conspiracy unravels, Sadie, Brad, and Rivas find themselves caught in the crosshairs of a ruthless organization who operates with the force of violence and thrives in the shadows.
