"Rachel Kennan, the new police chief of a fundamentalist southern town, relies on her job to push through the pain of losing her young son and the identity she buried years ago. Her husband Finn, a washed-up writer and recovering addict whose alcoholism led to the tragedy that ruined everything, fights to redeem himself and to keep his family from falling apart. Two partners trapped in a miserable marriage, their surviving daughters are the only thing keeping them together as they battle secrets that threaten to destroy them. A disturbing crime rocks the small community, sending Rachel chasing leads in a place that does not take kindly to outsiders, particularly ones with secrets. When something in the forest starts calling to the children, a metastasizing ancient fear spawns hate among the townspeople, placing the Kennans directly in the line of fire. Left with no choice but to rely on each other, Rachel and Finn must join forces to face threats inside and out-only to realize that the true terror is their reflection in a child's eyes, and the truth about the death of their son"--
