In 1989, Utah, a ritualistic serial killer resurfaces after more than a decade of assumed silence, branding his victims with the mark of a phoenix rising from flames. For lead investigator Cecelia Simon, the symbol is more than a calling card-it is a scar from her past. It echoes the cold case that shattered her family and stole her teenage sister. A murder that was never solved. A nightmare that never truly ended.
As the investigation deepens, Cecelia uncovers a labyrinth of falsified identities, erased bloodlines, and inherited land tied to generations of fire and death.
What began as a hunt for a killer becomes the unraveling of something far more terrifying: a design more than a decade in the making-and a truth about her sister's death that was never meant to surface. With every revelation, Cecelia is forced closer to a final, devastating realization: Her greatest threat wears the face of someone she loves.
