The novels protagonist, Detective Matt Buchanan, unravels as he pieces together the crimes hes trying to solve. Ultimately, it gets too personal, he goes too far, and, as the subtitle suggests, Buchanan descends into darkness.

For Buchanan, the world is a pretty sick place. He has probably been in the job too long, for one thing. And then theres 14-year-old Samantha Coates, and the other unsolved murder cases. Those innocent girls he just cant get out of his head. When Buchanan pursues some fresh leads, it soon becomes clear hes on the trail of something big. As he pieces the horrific crimes together, Buchanan finds the very foundations of everything he once believed in start to crumble. Hes forced across that grey line that separates right and wrong into places so dark, even he might not make it back.
