Sara Hersberger thought she'd fled the nightmare of her father's sins when she left her St. Ignatius, Montana Amish community. For ten years she'd lived in the shadow of the crimes he committed. Sought to free herself of his shadow. Now, with nowhere else to go, Sara is forced to return to her former home where the bad things her father did still haunt the families of the people he killed, including her neighbor, Hunter Troyer, who lost his wife to Amos Hersberger's sinister games.

But Sara's hopes at repairing her fractured relationship with the community disappear when another innocent victim is found dead near Sara's home, the MO matching the murders from ten years earlier. The distinctive blackbird, the killer's signature, left near the body.

The dead can't come back to life, no matter how much Sara wants to blame her father for the mounting body count. So who is responsible for the latest string of murders, and why are they targeting Sara? With help from an unlikely ally, Hunter Troyer and Sara had better figure it out soon before the killer manages to silence Sara for good.
