What begins as a straightforward burglary turns into a nightmare for everyone concerned when two adolescents steal into a home on a lonely lake with the intention of taking prescription medicines. For almost twenty years, Emmett Burr has been hiding secrets in his basement, and he will stop at nothing to keep his history a secret. The distinctions between abuser, protector, and victim become less evident as he gains the upper hand over his tormentors.
Ben Packard, a former police officer, returned to Sandy Lake, a tiny town in Minnesota, in quest of a new beginning after a personal tragedy. Driven by a familial tie, Packard, a sheriff's deputy now, is in charge of the investigation into the missing teenagers. As the time to rescue them runs out and the clues disappear, Packard is forced to face his own demons and delve deeply into the history of the land he now calls home.
