After spending nearly thirty years behind bars for causing a deadly school bus accident, Early Sykes returns to his hometown determined to enact revenge for his incarceration. He sets his sights on Lieutenant Kelly O'Shaunisy, the daughter of his captor. But Earl Sykes has an even more sinister secret: as he plots his revenge, his penchant for the rape, torture, and murder of young girls - the kinds of crimes he used to commit but for which he was never caught - needs to be fed. As Sykes gives in to his dark urges and the bodies of young women begin to appear in desolate areas of the New Jersey boardwalk, newly minted Lieutenant O'Shaunisy takes on the investigation. These crimes horrify her, not only because they suggest a gruesome cruelty, but because they are strangely reminiscent of crimes that went unsolved thirty years ago. As O'Shaunisy follows a series of frustrating dead-end leads, young women continue to go missing and bodies pile up. But then, a breakthrough that will change the game entirely. Her desperation leads her to an unlikely source: Sherry Moore, a beautiful, blind psychic, who possesses the extraordinary ability to access the last eighteen seconds of a person's life by touching that person's corpse. Sherry and O'Shaunisy, together, set out to stem the bloodshed... but not before becoming entangled in a dangerous web that could cost them their lives.
