And a killer determined to keep the case cold.

Twenty years ago, trauma and injury stole Karine Eloi’s memories of her mother’s murder. Now she’s back home, teaming up with her best friend, Omar Monroe, to uncover the truth. But the townspeople refuse to spill their secrets, leaving Karine’s life in danger. Omar will risk everything to prevent the woman he’s always had feelings for from becoming the victim of another unsolved murder.
