Lucas Cole is a writer, a father, a widower, and a beloved celebrity in his small town. He is an unassuming man - tall, thin and quietly friendly. Lucas Cole is also a serial killer. Nathan has known the truth about his father since he was ten. He ran away from home as soon as he was able, carrying the guilt of leaving his sister behind. But when Lucas is found dead, Nathan returns home. It's there he finds his father's final unpublished manuscript, a fictionalised account of his hideous crimes, in a box of trinkets taken from his victims. Trinkets that include a ribbon belonging to a girl who disappeared only days before his father's death. Now, Nathan must deal with the consequences of keeping his father's secret. But it may not be as simple as finding a lost child. For the manuscript holds Nathan's secrets, as well as Lucas's, and he's not the only one searching for the truth.
