Emerson is just like any other town with its quiet streets and close knit community, but it's seedy underbelly rises when night falls and wreaks unimaginable havoc.  Melinda knows only too well how dark the heart of the town truly is, as she moves easily between the two worlds. When she makes the acquaintance of Jackson Becker, a man very much like herself who is haunted by his own personal demons, a connection forms between them and it is nothing like either of them have ever experienced before.
