It's been twenty years since US Navy veteran Bret Morrison left his hometown of Morehead, Oklahoma, leaving behind a broken heart and the woman he loved, Marie. When he returns, Marie's still there, but she's changed-and so has Morehead.
People are disappearing. Gays, Jews, and African-Americans are suddenly vanishing. Those targeted have one thing in common-they belong to groups persecuted under Nazi regimes.
Someone in Bret's peaceful hometown seems intent on recreating Josef Mengele's dark agenda, but who?
Vergil, the local sheriff, seems at best indifferent to the disappearances, and at worst, complicit. Marie, Bret's old flame, has developed a seething hatred of blacks in his absence, at the same time growing involved with Erik, a German-American doctor. And then there's Karl, Erik's father, a pig farmer with a shadowy past-and a prime suspect in many townsfolk's minds.
Bret has his own memories to lay to rest. He needs closure with Marie, one way or another. And he can't help but draw connections between the current missing persons' crisis and a murder from his youth. All he's got to do is stay alive long enough to discover the truth.
