The thing which I greatly feared is come upon me . . .
Retreating to the wintry Maine of his childhood, Charlie Parker mourns the first anniversary of his wife and daughter's deaths. But the voices of the dead ring loud in the silence.
Impelled by the gruesome similarity to his past, Parker pursues the case of another young woman killed with her child. But during the investigation a name is mentioned. A name that connects Charlie Parker directly to the case. A name with a dark history.
As the deepening mystery delivers more violence, events converge on a confrontation between Charlie Parker and a monster incarnate.
