During the construction of the Lost Bridge Bike Trail in Rochester, Illinois, Chief of Police, Vaughn Dexter, is confronted with the death of a ten-year-old boy. Now the town's citizens, including an eccentric psychic, a disturbed librarian, the self-absorbed mayor, a lonely single mother, the town alcoholic, a troubled teenager, the terminally ill former Chief of Police and Katrina Lawrence, a woman that has left only to return for the sake of her family, will be sent into a downward spiral when the investigation's focus takes an unsettling twist, slamming Vaughn headlong into the guilt he has carried for twenty years. Vowing not to fail another victim, he will fight for the answers alongside some preferring to keep their secrets buried. Not knowing truth from fiction, Vaughn must follow the evidence. But just when he thinks he has it figured out, an abomination of the worst kind is revealed.
