-Present Day-Whitestone, New York -

An evening of birthday celebration for eighteen-year-old Luca Falcone and his friends quickly spirals into a nightmarish ordeal when Luca disappears, leaving a murder scene behind. With Luca's DNA on the murder weapon and no sign of him to be found, detectives brand him as the prime suspect. But the case grows cold, leaving questions unanswered, and a family torn apart.

Twenty-five years later, Luca's sister receives a mysterious letter that reignites hope. Could Luca have been innocent all along? Determined to find the truth, Private Investigator Hank Reed, a childhood friend of Luca, steps into the fray. But as Hank digs deeper, uncovering past oversights and secrets meant to stay hidden, he realizes that truth carries a hefty price.

With death threats tightening around him and another friend vanishing into thin air, Hank Reed knows he's onto something. But as the killer grows desperate to keep the past buried, Hank must use all his wits and bravery to solve the puzzle before becoming the next victim of a ruthless killer.
